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.

And even played him ON CSPAN once.

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.
