I'd go with Elizabeth Debicki for Ivanka

How is Trump anyone other than Alec Baldwin?

Michael Pence: Cotton Hill

If we are going cartoons, I think Race Bannon is closer for Pence.

[The Future Champs]

Is this a comedy or a drama?

 

[The Future Champs]

And Sean Spicer and that mouth breather SHS not in the pic?

 

[Koya]

Here I thought you meant the cast was FFA posters.

Although, especially in light of the new old rules, that could have gotten sticky with a quickness.

 

[Dedfin]

Steven Mnuchin - Fred Armistad

Ty Cobb - Wilfred brimley

Bonus points if Ty Cobb is diabetic!

 

[Bruce Dickinson]

Bonus points if Ty Cobb is diabetic!

In the Politics Subforum, we refer to diabetes as "the sugar". 

 

[Bruce Dickinson]

And Sean Spicer and that mouth breather SHS not in the pic?

All additions welcome.  Any suggestions for casting?

Melissa McCarthy could play both Spicer and SHS, if it's a comedy.

 

[Arsenal of Doom]

Clark Gregg for Spicer

Clark Gregg for Spicer

Right tv show but i'd go with Patton Oswalt

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

Steve Bannon: Mickey Rourke

We have to do better here.

Philip Seymour Hoffman would have been so perfect. 

 

[JIslander]

No Gary Busey?  Heck, put him in as Trump himself.

Roy Cohn, mentoring young Trump - Christopher Walken, or maybe Ed Harris

 

[OrtonToOlsen]

Sarah Huckabee Sanders --- Teddy Atlas

Philip Seymour Hoffman would have been so perfect. 

If Philip Seymour Hoffman is available, I'd want him to play Donald Trump.  

Love the spirit, though.  How about John Goodman as Bannon?

 

[Bruce Dickinson]

Roy Cohn, mentoring young Trump - Christopher Walken, or maybe Ed Harris

Like either one for Cohn.  And it seems like both Walken and Harris need to be involved in the project somehow.  

 

[massraider]

Willem Defoe in Nosferatu makeup as Eric Trump.

 

[moleculo]

How is Trump anyone other than Alec Baldwin? 

I was thinking Jeffrey Tambor.

 

[Bruce Dickinson]

I was thinking Jeffrey Tambor.

Excellent actor.  And previous experience saying lines like "there's a good chance I may have committed some light treason."  
Send him a script and see if he's interested.

 

[Bruce Dickinson]

First glance I want Gary Cole as Anthony Saramucci.  
Other suggestions?

 

[Mister CIA]

Gary Coleman works too, almost.

 

[Bruce Dickinson]

John C. McGinley needs to be involved somehow.  Could definitely handle the exasperated shoveler of BS vibe of the inner circle.

 

[5-ish Finkle]

It's a Trump movie? Freaking Ted McGinley should be in it.

 

[Mile High]

Do they still make movies without Samuel L. Jackson?

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Do they still make movies without Samuel L. Jackson?

Ben Carson cameo. 

"I want this [redacted] grain out of these [redacted] pyramids!"

 

[Bruce Dickinson]

Anthony Scaramucci: the boneitis guy from Futurama

 

[kwille]

Trump's hand model: Peter Dinklage

This guy is definitely a Trump voter in the movie

For Jeff Sessions, Martin Freeman is good but I'm  thinking Leslie Jordan.

[SaintsInDome2006]

I think James Woods would make a good Stephen Miller, though maybe he's too old at this point perhaps he could play him in a flash-forward 30 years later when he's in prison.

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

Melissa McCarthy could play both Spicer and SHS, if it's a comedy.

Or even if not. Even in real life it's been frequently hilarious.

 

[Hector Salamanca]

Also starring Scott Baio as "The Mooch"

Plot twist:  Baio will be played by The Mooch.
