Who should play Elizabeth Taylor in the Michael Jackson biopic?

Sherilyn Fenn again (if she’ll gain the weight)

Can they find another paedophile defender and apologist like Taylor? There seem to be plenty of them when it comes to Michael Jackson.

Stockyard Channing

Whoever plays Taylor must have blue eyes R3.

contacts R4

Jennifer Connelly

They don't work R5.

e.g. Brandon Routh as Superman. Didn't work.

Taylor's eyes were violet and contact lenses have come a long way since Superman unlike Brandon Routh

I forgot to mention CGI R7

No they haven't R8.

John Goodman

purple is made mixing red and blue so with Channing's red eyes and blue contacts . . .

and both CGI and contacts have been forward moving in their development even if you haven't R10

They could get Helena...

Great suggestion R13.

[quote]r8 Taylor's eyes were violet

Mmmmmm… photographer Francesco Scavullo said they were blue. A special shade of blue, but blue. And that she wore a lot of purple eyeshadow and lavender clothing to play up the perceived undertone.

Well, there you have it R15. Lighting, make-up, CGI and contacts can all produce the necessary illusion which is the magic of movies.

A comeback for a more mature Lindsay

Lindsay Lohan should play her again, just for the requisite tackiness.

Margo Martindale, of course

Is Burton and Taylor worth watching or is it a total piece of shit?

Maybe Delta Burke (if she’ll consent to old age makeup)

Arte Lange. If he's had his nose fixed.

Billy Porter.

Not Kate Beckinsale.

Jennifer Lawrence or Gwyneth Paltrow or any of the Weinstein bitches

There won’t be any Jackson biopic so…

Who will play Von Ryan?

I WAS going to suggest Lisa Marie Presley....

R20 watched part of it out of curiosity and though neither campy nor as bad as one might believe based on what I watched. But the story is so well-known to me that I wasn't compelled to watch it in its entirety. At times Lohan did look like Taylor in the same way Austin Butler sometimes suggests Elvis.
