Am I the only one who could really see James Franco playing Jeff? Seriously, resemblence.
That'd work. I'd rather see a movie about his dad Tim Buckley, though, I think.
Mal: So we run. Nandi: I understand, Captain Reynolds. You have your people to think of, same as me. And this ain't your fight. Mal: Don't believe you do understand, Nandi. I said 'we run'. We.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor
The basic idea calls from Tim to appear in flashbacks, though that's clearly not what you were looking for.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Okay, I know the first film was grossly ahistorical, but...wibble:
Cate Blanchett is to reprise her role as the Virgin Queen in a $47 million sequel to the 1998 film Elizabeth.
The film, Elizabeth: The Golden Age, will detail the Tudor monarch's tempestuous relationship with Sir Walter Raleigh and suggest Elizabeth was infatuated with the courtier and adventurer.
Clive Owen, the brooding star of Closer and Sin City, is to play Sir Walter Raleigh.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, my heart did an extra thumpy thing.

Ooh, and here I was thinking that Clive shouldn't play costume drama earlier than the 20th century.

Sir Walter Raleigh was not a fucking cockney.

Yeah, but Cate is at least prepared to make a stab at an accent. Owen will just be Chancer in a ruff. Chancer was a great show, but Owen has been playing precisely the same character since.

Which is fine, you know - Connery is always Connery, Clint always Clint - but you need to fit that kind of Star into the right role. Otherwise you get the horrors of the days when Bruce Willis used to try and stretch himself, and no-one wants that.
