Theoretically, if they're going after a big Oscar winner type picture who could you see playing Hillary?

Jessica Lange, though it'll probably be Streep.

It would need to be cast on the young side (late 30s-40s) for someone who could believably play HRC from law student to Secretary of State.

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

The article seems to indicate it's only focusing on Hillary just prior to her marriage, in her late twenties.

If they are going for a young Hillary, I have this feeling a Brit or Aussie will be cast in the role. I blame this on the fact I am blanking on a young American actress who somewhat resembles Hillary in that age group.

This is Hillary circa High School, I believe. Wellesley-Yale Law Hillary gets a little more Gloria Steinem/second-wave feminist chic.


Now who would play young Bill?

I thought Hope Davis did a good 'impression' of Hillary in that HBO movie that had Michael Sheen play Tony Blair for the 1,000th time.

Brie Larson (Kate on THE UNITED STATES OF TARA) was the first actress who came to mind for me.

Young Bill seems like the harder role to cast. What young actor could pull off that kind of charisma?

Oh, yes! I do like her! I wish her Q-ratings were higher where she could be able to lead a film like this.

LOL! I sat on jury duty with her last month. She was REALLY sweet!

But (and I know her name is thrown around a lot lately) but Carey Mulligan might work for this.

Emma Thompson - been there, done that, could do it again

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.

I know people are hating on her singing voice, but Amanda Seyfried is kinda made for it.

Jonathan Brandis (RIP) would have been ideal for this.

Someone on Gawker suggest Elisabeth Moss and that seemed rather inspired to me.

Hmmm... Maybe. Can Abby Bartlett play her mother?

Moss is a FABULOUS idea.
