    I'll have to pick an actual character from a movie more so than an actor


    I had a bout of Bell's Palsy back in '93 @ 17 so my closest lookalike would be Sloth from 'The Goonies' !!!

    I reckon Bosco's be the one for the job - well-seasoned performer, great name recognition, no major scandals.

    Plus the poster'd be amazing

    The young me would be played by the black lad from Stranger Things. The teenage\ twenties me would be played by Tobey Maguire. Scarlett Johansson would play me in my thirties\forties. Jackie Chan would play me for most of the rest of the film until the scene where I'm in my death bed which would be played by Kirk Douglas.

    Given my penchant for the finer things in life, an accurate portrayal of my foibles could only be achieved Kelsey Grammer.

    Sandra Bullock. She can do serious roles but has comic timing which is apt for me. Her face is looking a bit too crease free lately though !

    Daniel Day Lewis

    He can play any part.

    And he'd take my job for a few years researching the role. So I can skive off for a while.

    I imagined a guy that's kind of stocky with a shaved head. I don't know why but that's what came to mind! Am I close? :p
