My picks for casting the ancillary characters of Oliver Stone’s W.:

- Michael Hogan as Senator John McCain

- Mos Def as Senator Barack Obama (Will Smith would’ve been the more obvious and thus less interesting choice.)

- Hillary Clinton: Obvious choice: Hope Davis. Interesting choice: Jeanine Garofalo.

- Larry the Cable Guy as Bill Clinton

- Christopher Lee as Osama Bin Laden

- Gary Oldman as Vladimir Putin

- Bob Hoskins as Saddam Hussein

- Kal Penn as Mahmoud Ahmadinejad

- Masi Oka as Kim Jong Il

- Amy Adams as Jenna Bush

- Ricky Gervais as Tony Blair (Makes absolutely no sense lookswise, but would be fucking hilarious)

- John Cleese dressed up as the Insulting Frenchman from Monty Python and the Holy Grail as Jacques Chirac:

“I fart in your general direction.”
