Okay, been awhile. But face it…you haven’t noticed really. Anyway-
Been looking at some of the new films coming in out and spotted
Lincoln (2012) on the main page of imdb. I’m looking at the poster wondering if it’s a
biopic or some space ninja version when I notice Daniel Day Lewis above his
head. I get that he’s a good actor but HOLY HANDGRENADE he’s not the only actor
in LA is he? There’s probably some sort of plan in development that will make it possible for Daniel Day Lewis to be in every film but they’re having trouble with the cloning process.
Development: “Heard casting was having a hard time with some
of our new projects. What are they?”
Lowly Assistant: “Well, sir. Churchill needs a lead.”
Development Big Wig: “Get Daniel Day Lewis. He can do the
accent.”
Assistant: “There’s also that Lewis and Clark biopic.”
Development: “Oh, Daniel’s good for that.”
Assistant: “Which part?”
Development: “Both. We’ve got wigs.”
Assistant: “Sandlot 5
is looking at some local high school students...”
Development: “That doesn’t film till the spring, let’s get
Daniel to come in for some CGI tests. Oh, and how’s Wonder Woman coming along?”
Assistant: “They’re good. Yeah, don’t worry about that.”
You know what...he'll probubly do a great job of it and he is close in appearance but COME ON. It doesn't help that theres been a run of Lincoln-esque films lately. It was a joke in school and its even more frustrating at this moment. Why must it always be Daniel Day Lewis? They’re making it such a cliché I’m not really interested in
going to see Lincoln.
Mini Rant over.
