What Actors Should Be U2 If They Made A Movie

Gonna Run 2 U · 07-03-2008, 04:57 PM

Val Kilmer - Jim Morrison.....Who would play Bono..should i go with the cliche answer - Johnny Depp? Haha

Ben Stiller played Bono and Andy Dick played Adam in a spoof that was actually quite funny.

Nothing tragic has happened to U2 (that i know of) so i dont know if it would be an interesting film plot wise and critic wise...nice to watch but not really anything too serious.

You know I don't know of anyone who looks like them except for the usual Bono look alikes.

I think it'd be cool if for this movie we did a whole thing similar to what Cate Blanchett did last year when she portrayed Bob Dylan. Let's get girls to play the members of U2!

Leighton Meester would be a good Bono:

I'll think of some actresses for the other band members later.

I think a great plot would be the Kunstmuseum concert for whalers but that's just me.

snerk!

I think the whole plot should be about the band reacting to the shit they read about themselves online.

Bono? Definitely, Colin Farrell.

The only person who should play baby Bono is his daughter Eve. She looks just like late 70's early 80's Bono.

Dana

Yeah, easy call.

James McAvoy looks like a young Bono. Old Gregg could play everyone else.

RedRocksU2 · 07-04-2008, 12:45 AM

Jeff Probst aka Bono.

You know I think I remember reading a thread on IMDB or some shit about this, and the only suggestion I remember was Michael Cera as young Edge.

Isn't that just inspired? I mean, they look nothing like each other but wouldn't it be great.

edge - billy bob thornton

kingofsorrow · 07-04-2008, 02:59 AM

Axver should play bono
lars ulrich should play paul mc guine$$
elvis should play larry
jay-z should play adam
and "the starship enterprises' " computer should play the edge.
