Chris Farley would have been perfect
DAMN, I guess I forgot that he DID play Newt...

Chris Farley did a great Howell Heflin as well!

He would be lucky if Rainn Wilson was interested. I don't think Brad would want to gain that much weight, but it might be a challenge for him portraying someone that evil.

Most any guy would want Brad Pitt to play him on the screen.
But it takes balls to be a fat ass and think that he would be the right choice.
I think Jack Black could do a good job. Or maybe Seth Rogan.
I mean, it will be a comedy, right?

It was a fantasy life movie reference. Apparently Newt wishes he were a tad more svelte in real life.
He never made a suggestion for an actor for a historically accurate portrayal.
Conan for wife #3 is pretty good, though.
