What do you think... Meryl Streep to play Cassidy Hutchinson in the movie?

[WheelWalker]

[Ocelot II]

1. She's way too old, though there does seem to be a bit of resemblance.

[MiniMe]

4. I think you mean Streep is too old to play a 25 year old

[Ocelot II]

9. Yes, that's what I meant. Streep is a terrific actress, but I don't think

it's ageist to point out that it might be hard for her to pass for 25.

[3catwoman3]

14. Definitely NOT ageist.

Not even close.

[Bucky]

21. I'd absolutely believe her in that role, given the right wig

However Dame Judy Dench would be my top pick.

11. Meryl Streep could play anyone, including someone that much younger. She's just that good.

Yes, it is a stretch, but she is just THAT good.

[Shrike47]

2. Unfortunately, she's 30 years too old for the part.

[Skittles]

24. more like 50 years

[rsdsharp]

3. Meryl is good,

but I don’t think she can play 25.

[Ferrets are Cool]

5. You mean 73 year old Meryl Streep?

[Bucky]

20. I'm not going to report you to the mods for ageism, but we should all be better than that

You've been warned

[Ferrets are Cool]

23. Ok, if you think a 73 year old Meryl Streep could play a 25 year old Hutchinson,

go ahead and report my 67 year old ass. Sheesh.

[YorkRd]

6. Julia Garner

[MLAA]

8. Wonderful actress

[Voltaire2]

7. Maybe somebody a few decades younger?

[BootinUp]

10. For the OTHER part how about Jeff Bridges?

[Lochloosa]

12. Alicia Vikander

[obnoxiousdrunk]

13. She could play

the grandmother.

[targetpractice]

15. Maybe Allison Williams...

... Brian William's daughter....

[yorkster]

16. She reminded me of Meryl Streep.

Streep of the 70s and 80s, I should add...

[Fiendish Thingy]

17. Nope the perfect casting would be Laura Dreyfus from the Netflix show "The Politician"

If you haven’t seen the show, I highly recommend it.

If you watch Dreyfus’ portrayal of her character in that show, you will instantly know what I mean.

Second choice would be D’arcy Carden from the HBO show Barry.

[Backseat Driver]

18. Maybe Zooey Deschanel or Meagan Fox?

Even Madeline Stowe is a big too old; very like Viola Davis doing Michelle in The First Ladies.

I never saw Julia Garner as a brunette, but definitely could handle the guy playing Meadows.

[Bucky]

19. Helen Mirren has the right quiet dignity to carry off this role.

However the perfect casting would be Dustin Hoffman

[miyazaki]

22. Maybe, but I was thinking Morgan Freeman.

[mentalsolstice]

25. Not Meryl, however, her daughters, actors Maime or Grace
