I can't make images work on this board, but I think Sutton Foster would make an eerily good Judy Garland should another biopic be made.

Sutton is too tall to play Judy in any realistic manner. Judy was barely 5' tall, and Sutton is about 5'9".

Margo Martindale as Paula Deen. The story of a divorced agoraphobic transforming into a savvy businesswoman and celebrity chef.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

The two women who played JG in the 2001 movie are taller, too. Tammy Blanchard is 5'6". Judy Davis 5'5".

Marion Cotillard is almost 5'7" and played the 4'8" Edith Piaf.

Tom Hanks would make a better Abe, imho. He is a descendant of Abe's mom, after all.
