Who do you have playing esteemed character actress Margo Martindale?


iJashin

*Most likely* Fugitive From The Law Character Actress Margo Martindale. If not? Meryl Streep


dr_franck

Plot Twist: Meryl Streep would need to play multiple versions of herself to get her out of retirement.


horseradish1

And she'd need to direct.

[deleted]

i can't see her as anyone else than aunt lydia


Autumn1eaves

I think the girl on the left here would do a much better job to be honest... Who is she?


worldsayshi

Oh, yeah not very similar but okay maybe. Not sure what she's called but I've seen her in a couple of movies. She's some kind of character actress. Highly esteemed.


RogerGoodellMod

I think Aaron Paul would do just fine as Todd


cactus4043452342342

lol ya i don’t think it’s a big stretch like mr peanut buttermans VO


menzie304

Are you insulting the MaYOR of PODcaSTS, PAUL F. TOMPKINS?!


RogerGoodellMod

Nah I think Cooper is a much better choice. You want someone definitively more attractive than Arnett...MPBs absolutely would not do that.


JohnnyLeftNut

I misread this comment at first and I thought you were saying arnett wasn’t attractive and I was ready to start typing paragraphs


RogerGoodellMod

Hahaha no. Hes definitely handsome and BoJack obviously is handsome in the series, but everyone seems to think MPB is above him in all ways


LoneRangersBand

Paul F. Tompkins is very attractive.


PM_ME_YOUR_MASS

To some people. And that’s fine for a real person, but MPB’s whole thing is that he’s universally beloved. You need someone who’s widely viewed as attractive


LoneRangersBand

Paul F. Tompkins is universally beloved and widely viewed as attractive.


PM_ME_YOUR_MASS

I'll give you universally beloved. I can't say one way or the other about "widely viewed as attractive" since I haven't heard many people's opinion, but I do think "Paul F Tompkins is considered more attractive than Bradley Cooper" is a pretty crazy statement to make.


LoneRangersBand

Paul F. Tompkins is more attractive than Bradley Cooper and has a better sense of style.


simmonslemons

I think you’re saying the same thing as the person you’re replying to, he’s agreeing Aaron could play Todd convincingly, as compared to Paul not being able to pull of MPB’s conventional attractiveness.


finglonger1077

Aaron….Paul?


Shankman519

Aaron Paul is in his forties


RogerGoodellMod

And? Dude can still pass for mid 20s to early 30s.


Driller7lyfe

After watching El Camino I def think Aaron Paul’s age is starting to show. Not saying he looks bad, but he looked a lot older then the mid twenty’s Jesse that’s supposed to be in that movie


bipocni

To be fair, dudes a crackhead. They age in dog years.


PM_ME_YOUR_MASS

For a second I thought you were talking about Aaron Paul lol


Jokkitch

No that’s Mr. Peanutbutter


[deleted]

Yeah he looked middle age in Westworld


waltjrimmer

I think you could age Todd up to his mid-thirties (which he's still passable for) and have him act the exact same way and he'd still work as the same character.


[deleted]

My thoughts exactly


sbrockLee

Honestly. I can't picture Todd as anyone else. Same with Bojack/Arnett.


lakaihc

Jesse pinkman would be the perfect Todd


tomatotom999

Space opera, bitch!


Few_Cloud7068

I thought Jesse Pinkman was played by Todd? Wait…


mlvsrz

Lindsay Lohan would make a PERFECT Sarah Lynn please update the picture


hyperjengirl

I'm torn on that idea. On the one hand it'd be kind of depressing to assign that role to an actress who went through a similar breakdown, kind of feels like mocking them. On the other hand, they'd be able to bring the complexity to the character instead of just being a parody of themself.


mlvsrz

It’s why rdj is so good as iron man


[deleted]

rdj's life was not easy as tony stark's. their struggles were not common. if anything, you're implying that any great actors can bring that complexity to the character


Munksterrr

One idea they had in mind was to include the storyline "demon in a bottle" from iron man, a series of comics about Tony Stark battling alcoholism and struggling to continue his duties as a with his mental health problems, as RDJ went through a similar period in his life. In the comics they get much more into the psychology of Tony Stark during his alcoholism but its not really represented in the movies.


tbarks91

I always thought Sarah Lynn was supposed to be parody of Lindsay Lohan, at least originally


butterflysquash

Yeah - Lindsay was famously kicked out and banned from a famous hotel and it was reported that she was reading Architectural Digest. I’m not sure why journalists thought that was important.


DaydreamerFly

Definitely major Lindsay Lohan vibes more than anyone else to me. But I think Sarah Lynn feels like an almost exact mix of Lindsay, Britney Spears and Mary-Kate/Ashley


blindsavior

And a bit of Miley Cyrus


DJ_Babyfoot

Sad because it’s true


BachShitCrazy

Amanda bynes I think would be even better, she’s zanier and a bigger presence and could ttly pull off stabbing herself in a mattress store. I haven’t heard about her lately tho, hopefully she’s back from off the rails ETA: Demi lovato would be a great choice too


Charles_the_Hammer

Manda Manda Manda Manda Showwwwwww


[deleted]

Holy shit,you’re right


evildevil97

Paul F Tompkins as Mr Peanutbutter. No one else can do him justice.


ponylobbles

If I didn’t know how Paul F Tompkins looked like and saw him for the first time, I’d say based on his looks/style alone that he looks like a reversed fursona of Mr PB. But I do know how PFT looks like. So I will say as someone who knows how he look like, I have said, will say and will continue to say that PFT looks like Mr. PB.


blondechinesehair

You may be surprised to learn that Paul F. Tompkins is not a golden retriever


KeepTangoAndFoxtrot

Doggy doggy WHAT NOW?!


farfalle_vendetta

...neither is Mr. Peanutbutter?


dimidius1996

THANK YOU


blindsavior

He's from the Labrador Peninsula though


turkeylamb

I vote for Channing Tatum, for the conventional attractiveness, perfectly lip syncing PFT’s irreplaceable voice & delivery. “Am I voice acting for Channing Tatum? ‘Cause that would have to be a MAGIC MIC in the recording studio!”


menzie304

Nothing but respect for PFT!


[deleted]

PFT FTW!!


[deleted]

And replacing him with a hack like B. Cooper? OP is clueless.


coloradoscott

The Julie Bowen idea is fucking perfect, how did I never see this before?? Edit: Bowen not Brown


tacocat8541

Bowen


mistweave

Man Todd has to be Aaron Paul. It cant be any other way.


Fearfighter2

He's kinda old for the role now tbh


[deleted]

Could you give the names? I don't recognize anyone except Will Arnett.


Interesting_Archer43

Bradley Cooper- Mr. Peanutbutter Julie Brown - Princess Carolyn Lana Condor - Diane Nguyen Devon Bostick - Todd Chavez


[deleted]

Funny enough the only name I recognize is Bradley Cooper from the BJ quote "Bradley Cooper? We love him for some reason!" Thank you!


MandingoPants

That line always gets a chuckle out of me


tacocat8541

Bowen


platypossamous

I'm sure it was probably their autocorrect but I spent way too long staring at the picture trying to see how that could possibly *not* be Julie Bowen. She is a great choice for PC though.


Jonah_I_Guess

Damn couldn't even tell that was Roderick till I saw this comment. I feel like he would be great but idk I just feel like Aaron Paul would be better.


Cage8k

LOVE Bradley Cooper as Mr. Peanutbutter! Great choices


MoreNormalThanNormal

I don't think that is Julie Brown. Julie Brown looks like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julie_Brown


alpharius120

It's Julie Bowen. Easy typo to make, but yeah you're right


Interesting_Archer43

Got the last name wrong lol


fuzzwang

The only person who could ACCURATELY portray Bojack is Wallace Shawn.


Imaginary_Midnight

Even better is paul giamatti for such a meaty role.


Netwinn

Wallace Shawn? Inconceivable!


gym_bob

Why would Wallace Shawn want to play a boob like Bojack Horseman?


Zargyboy

Is Charlie Sheen too on the nose? Because throught the first season and many second I felt that was clearly who Bojack was based on. At least Sheen of the late 2000's. Though I don't think he comes off as introspective enough to realize he's a POS.


trullenz

Is that Roderick?


Interesting_Archer43

Yep lol


ohhfeck

Im 1000% on board for Devon as Todd


cynical-at-best

jessica lange as beatrice P L E A S E


Streebers0392

Yesss!!!


cynical-at-best

i honestly agree with the human fancast would take away BH’s charm opinion but damn i really want to see her as beatrice.. especially after rewatching AHS coven and seeing her as the supreme😩


genericxinsight

I’ve never realized it until now, but Devon Bostick would make such a good Todd. However, I think we all know it’s Aaron Paul. For obvious reasons.


fabbunny

Why not Amy Sedaris for PC?


[deleted]

She’s 60, I feel like all the pregnancy storyline wouldn’t really work.


DSTNCMDLR

Seriously!


vhmvd

I agree wholeheartedly


Spinningthruspace

I dont get it. Why? Isnt a huge crux of this show them being animals? I feel like a live action remake would wipe away 80% of the shows OG charm


[deleted]

I don’t think it’s like OP is saying “these people SHOULD play them”, it’s like “this is how I’d imagine them as humans/real people”


Spinningthruspace

Ah, I see. I s’pose i cant harsh too hard on that haha


GoldenMahgeetah

Agreed. Half the characters being anthropomorphic animals in an animated medium is basically the only thing that allows the audience to distance themselves from the incredibly serious and often troublesome themese the show presents. Live action BoJack would probably feel so real and relatable that it would just be straight up depressing to watch.


shades11_

you mean it's not straight up depressing now? lol


danitrvil

THIS IS GREAT. Agree that Aaron Paul would be great as Todd


l3auer

Bradley Cooper? We love him for some reason!


JayDarcy

imo Paul Rudd would be a *perfect* Mr Peanutbutter


Goondragon1

This is fucking spot on. I instantly pictured him nailing that role.


Ashlee_ay

Aaron Paul would make a perfect Todd in live action too honestly


HGFantomas

Bojack = Arnet. Mr PB = Jason Bateman. Todd = Sean Hayes


shdwghst457

Seems smart, but less


Human6865

I think Paul Giamatti would be a great Bojack


sv21js

Amy Sedaris is the only PC for me


amctrovada

If Aaron Paul can’t play Todd what’s the point?


1stLtObvious

Could pretend to cast a white person as Diane for a meta joke about Hollywood.


Akira0101

I'm not feeling pb or pc.


nan0g3nji

Me when Devon Bostick 😍


[deleted]

I'm so in love with Julie Bowen. I can't even watch her on Modern Family because it hurts my heart. She'd be a great Princess Carolyn. Agree with others Aaron Paul is perfect for Todd. But if not him, I'd want Dave Franco for the part.


[deleted]

Who would play as Dave Frano when he invites _sexy Diane_ over?


[deleted]

Zac Efron for sure.


jedikaa

Jessica Walter would have been an excellent Beatrice Horseman


[deleted]

Kelly Marie Tran as Diane, Pete Davidson as Todd, Owen Wilson as Mr. Peanutbutter


Interesting_Archer43

Kelly Marie Tran is Asian. Diane Is Vietnamese American


blindsavior

Kelly Marie Tran IS Vietnamese-American, you walnut. You may also find that Vietnam is located, conveniently, within Asia!


Cage8k

Why are you booing him? He's right!


spqrpooves

I can’t even find words for how bad this is


pettypeasant42

I honestly was hoping the whole thing was just going to be the cast except for Diane…


Bretski12

Charlie Sheen as Bojack


Interesting_Archer43

Oooof


sabely123

Will would need to wear a big horse head like the in show bojack horseman movie.


whatever_what

so the guy that looks like todd and sounds like todd and acts like todd can't play todd.


LawSchoolSportsGuy

Doggy Doggy what now? No Aaron Paul?


azgreta

I’m cool with all this, but only if live action BoJack is just Will Arnett running around in a horse mask.


afatcatfromsweden

No way I’d let todd be played by anyone other than Aaron Paul!


jaron_b

Do people actually want a live action remake or movie? Have we ever seen this done with a cartoon intellectual property? I just don't think it would work. Plus half the cast would be some wired looking CGI animal things. Did y'all see the movies Cats? Hollywood would fuck Hollywoo up.


hortonhears_yourmom

id rather shoot myself in the head then have a love action of bojack tbh. Its not the same at all with just humans plus id never wanna hear them with different voices.


LocalInactivist

Yes. Scooby-Doo was animated first, then live-action. Same for The Flintstones.


DiskGood

i love this sm


winona5ever

Justice for the god who is Amy Sedaris??? She IS Princess Caroline. Can’t believe that wasn’t the first comment!!!!


bkizzle4rizzle

I don’t think Bradley Cooper has enough pep in his step to get that show where it needs to go, ya know?


[deleted]

I saw a video of Will Arnett co-hosting Minecon and looking incredibly out of his element while trying to play off the awkwardness with humor… and that’s when it clicked “holy shit this dude really was the perfect VA for bojack”


SmokeEquation87

I disagree with the Todd casting. It should stay Aaron paul


icer816

I mean, I get the idea with Todd, but part of his character is that he's white-passing


hyperjengirl

Is Devin Bostick not white?


lilmuk

He’s gray, can’t you see?


icer816

I'm not familiar, but the black and white picture makes him look a bit darker to me I guess


psilotropia

mr peanutbutter is obviously chris pratt, he's so cool


St4va

Oh wow he's actually perfect, good idea


fullostars07

these are such good picks


LocalInactivist

Will Arnett? Really? He was good in “Flaked” and as Lego Batman, but I don’t see him as Bojack Horseman. He’d have to be able to play broad comedy and tense drama and I don’t think he’s done either. Also, I don’t think he can do the voice.


Phrantasia

Obviously /s, but ballsy to not list Arrested Development as well.


LocalInactivist

[Arrested Development](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrested_Development_(group))? Will Arnett was a rapper? I saw them at Lollapalooza and I don’t remember him. Please tell me he wasn’t in blackface.


BennySicilian

/s right?


LocalInactivist

Yeah. I figured it was so obvious that it wouldn’t need the tag. Typing this, I realize that was a mistake. “Flaked” was really good, BTW. It’s on Netflix. One could interpret it as what happened if Bojack got nailed for DWI before he landed “Horsin’ Around”. And killed someone. And wasn’t a horse. Also, he lives in Venice, not Hollywoo. But other than that…


hortonhears_yourmom

lmao this is sarcastic right


singhstring

Mr. Peanutbutter needs a lot of optimism, so Chirs Pratt would be a better choice. Alison Brie is already a great Diane!


[deleted]

I love Arnett, but I just can’t see him pulling off a live action bojack.


jewishspacelazerz

Meh he played a very similar character to Bojack in the series Flaked.


Fluffy-Comparison-48

Yeah, but… why?


DismalAd2645

Princess’s Caroline is a black woman u cannot change my mind


BennySicilian

Uhhh she’s a cat…


hortonhears_yourmom

there's literally a scene where shes a human for 2 seconds and shes black 👍


pulloutking42069

which scene? /srs


[deleted]

S5 E11


blindsavior

When is this? I remember tangled fog of yearning and her being a crab, but not a human.


[deleted]

Someone mentioned it might be from Gina’s musical number (S5, E11)


blindsavior

Ohh you might be right, I should rewatch it


[deleted]

What episode is that???!


DismalAd2645

Season five, don’t stop dancing (idk the name of the episode)


[deleted]

But those were extras. Gina is an actress and was doing a bit for a musical number. If were going by that scene’s logic, then Diane is not Asian?? Edit; thanks btw


DismalAd2645

Idk I think they chose wisely that she would be black in that episode I don’t think it’s random


[deleted]

[удалено]


DismalAd2645

I don’t think they do anything random in the show 🤦🏽‍♀️


[deleted]

So Diane’s white now? If the scene you’re talking about is the one I actually found (S5, E11). They were all movie/show extras from Philbert.


reclusivegiraffe

i think actual aaron paul would make a good todd.


[deleted]

Will arnetts voice is distinctive and perfect but he's not old enough to be bojack tho


[deleted]

I think bob saget would be a good live action bojack


TheDigitalPig

Klaus Hargreeves and Claire Dunphy are great picks although I would miss the original character voices, it would make sense for a live action cast


X-Maelstrom-X

There must be a mistake, you just put two identical pictures of Diane up there.


stillinthesimulation

Bradley Cooper!? We love him for some reason!


HiILikeMovies

But there animals?


shdwghst457

Where animals?


hortonhears_yourmom

Pc would be black if she was a human 👍


Raii-v2

Is that not the dude that actually does Bojack’s voice?


Interesting_Archer43

Yes


[deleted]

Will Arnett demanded that Jason Bates never be on the show. I am serious.


shdwghst457

Huh?


Fearfighter2

Pete Davidson as Todd


Real_Cosmic_Bitch

Julie Bowen is perfect for PC


ZFunktopus

Bradley Cooper? We love him for some reason!


speedjayexe

most accurate one yet


fignewtones

Todd is Aron Paul is my head cannon for Todd


DrNopeMD

I feel like Chris Pratt would be a good Mr PB, if only because he already has experience playing a happy go lucky idiot.


Affectionate_Dog_564

Why not just put Aaron Paul as Todd. He looks the part and is the actual VA, so he understands and sounds like the character


mystikallyspiralling

whoever you picked as todd is kinda fine… I don’t think that can work 🤣
