Which actors would you like to cast opposite each other?
Romantic leads, buddies, adversaries -- tell me which actors you'd like to pair on screen. Picking people who have already starred together is fine (I liked Elizabeth Pena and Chris Cooper in Lone Star and would gladly see them costar again).

Me, I've got this strange idea of pairing Jesse L. Martin and Robson Green in a crime thriller. Both of them have done a lot of TV and perhaps should make it to the big screen more often. Cold showers in theater lobby are optional.




You get extra points for picking people who aren't on recent covers of Parade, People, or US Weekly.:P

2. Smelling salts for chimpsrsmarter!
I mean, putting that man on the big screen could be hazardous to the audience, with all that swooning going on...

5. Oh, have mercy.
Look, last night I had Harry Potter nightmares following the actor-without-a-bad-performance thread (It must have been all those Alan Rickman fans). Don't give me another image I won't be able to shake. :crazy:

12. Come on!
Imagine the scene of Courtney Love pushing a wheelchair bound Madonna down a flight of stairs. It's brilliant.

8. Vince Vaughn and Vincent D'Onofrio
I know they are both in the breakup but I would like to see them in a movie as brothers as the focus of the film. It could really be nutty and fun with the right script.

14. You have something there.
The same goes for KT2000's suggestion regarding the two Vincents, D'Onofrio and Vaughn. There's that non-family family resemblance!

11. I don't know about acting, but I think Nicole Kidman and Anthony Bourdaine
would make the best hollywood couple. She is the soft spoken temptress. He the booze swilling, cig smoking bad boy. She is very feminine, he is very masculine. Both are very tall. I just can picture them as a couple.

13. Jerry Seinfeld and Garry Shandling in a buddy "cop" movie
They play two hack comedians who are forced to work undercover to help solve a rash of comedy club murders.

If anyone wants to co-write, give me a ring.
