Who Ought to Play Whom within the Inevitable-Seeming Taylor Swift Biopic?

Between Timothée Chalamet enjoying Bob Dylan, Angelina Jolie enjoying Maria Callas, and Paul Mescal and Barry Keoghan apparently on their strategy to get pudding-bowl haircuts for Sam Mendes’s upcoming Beatles movie, these of us preferring our movies drawn from the lives of iconic musicians have lots to stay up for today.

Additionally into the biopic motion? Six-time Oscar nominee Amy Adams, who instructed Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday that she’d be 100% all the way down to play Taylor Swift’s legendarily fearsome publicist Tree Paine onscreen, ought to the chance arrive. “If it acquired me nearer to Taylor, then that will be enjoyable,” Adams mentioned.

Whereas there aren’t any public plans for a Swift (or Paine) biopic in the mean time, it’s in all probability solely a matter of time, proper? To that finish, I’ve taken it upon myself to dream-cast the movie, and if anybody in Hollywood desires to pay me cash for this type of deranged artistic genius, they’re welcome to.

There’s extra to this casting alternative than simply magnificence and blondeness, I promise: Robbie proved with Barbie that she’s greater than able to portraying a healthful, all-American icon, and he or she and Swift are precisely the identical age, which I really feel would lend a degree of verisimilitude to her efficiency. Plus, the 2 ladies are buddies, so Robbie would have the ability to examine Swift’s mannerisms up shut.

I don’t know precisely what position a younger Tree Paine would play within the Taylor Swift biopic, given she and Swift met as adults, however possibly there’s a flashback sequence or one thing? That’s a plot twist for the screenwriters to determine, however I believe Sink would play Paine’s steely-eyed, scarlet-haired resolve all too properly. (Get it?)

James Van Der Beek as Travis Kelce

Sure, the previous Dawson’s Creek star must bulk up fairly a bit to seize the physique of Swift’s football-star boyfriend, however that’s not so laborious to do. Then once more, Kelce famously grew to become a bona fide actor himself just lately, so possibly he can play himself (with Swift’s hard-won approval, in fact).

Does Chalamet have the vary to play a chainsmoking British semi-dirtbag? (Don’t @ me, The 1975 superfans!) I believe so, but when he can’t pull it off, possibly one among his doppelgangers can.

Alana Hadid as Gigi Hadid

How are you going to do higher, casting-wise, than one other member of the Hadid household? Positive, Bella could be nice, however Gigi’s older half-sister Alana may properly ship an impressed interpretation of one among Swift’s all-time besties.

Reneé Rapp as Cara Delevingne

These two flaxen-haired celesbians are buddies who’ve additionally served as Megan Thee Stallion’s de facto bodyguards, so finding out Delevingne’s vibe could be a snap for Rapp (no rhyme supposed). She‘s already acquired the accent down.
