And next, Britney as Laura Bush.
Perhaps it's too much to ask to cast actors who look like the people they're portraying in biographical movies. George C. Scott didn't look all that much like Patton, Anthony Hopkins didn't look all that much like Nixon, and I imagine that if anyone had seen it, James Brolin didn't look all that much like Reagan. But it really strikes me as pushing the envelope to have Tom Selleck portray Eisenhower, especially when he isn't going to do all that much to look like Ike, in the upcoming two-hour movie for A&E "Ike: Thunder in June". Apparently he'll shave his mustache, but won't wear any appliances. (Shaving his head? He won't say.) At least the producers are consistent: they're filming the movie in New Zealand, which doesn't look all that much like Normandy, either.
