If they made a movie about Marilyn Monroe,who would play her?

[Howdoulikemenow333]

Mabe one day they will make a true movie of Marilyn Monroe. I seen a coupld of movies on tv about her,but who ever is going to make a movie about her they ould have to dig up her life history,and all the other things that she did good and bad. Who would play her?

Charlez Theron would do a very good job - the two above can't act to save their souls! Marilyn is a very complicated character to portray properly.

I hate to say this, but Anna Nicole Smith resembles her a lot(she just needs to gain weight back.....Taco Bell, baby!)

But, she can't act for sh*t

It's weird, I was also thinking of her before I even saw your post. But she really can't act, like you said.

There was a mini-series a few years ago based on the Joyce Carol Oates novel Blonde. It starred Poppy Montgomery (of Without a Trace) as Marilyn Monroe. The mini-series itself wasn't great, but Montgomery was surprisingly good.

I agree that Charlize Theron would be a great choice for the role. She's extremely talented, and I think she could be made up to look like Marilyn.

:lol:

Yeah, but I think the mention of Charlize could work. If they did her up a little she could resemble Marilyn. At least she has acting skills...

Anna Nicole-The resemblance is uncanny,even if she cant act.

I saw a film on Star awhile ago called "Norma Jean and Marilyn" and Mira Sorvino played Marilyn. I thought the film was actually pretty good. Steven Culp played Robert Kennedy. It might have been the hair, but I thought he looked a little like Robert, too.

[Pus$y Galore]

Yeah, I agree, I saw that movie and it wasn't bad.

I don't think Anna Nicole would be good at it. When you see their pictures side by side, they really aren't as close in looks as you'd think. (I was a huge MM fan and have had Norman Mailer's book for over 25 years and have every picture in it ingrained in my memory)! Anna Nicole is also WAY too tall to play her. Besides, no studio would risk hiring her. She might be thin now, but her drug habit isn't any better and it would be TOO close to the real Marilyn trying to get her to the studio on time I'd bet!

It's actually fairly easy to make someone up to look like Marilyn (even Madonna pulled it off), but you need an actress who can really get in to her character and I think Theron is the best bet for that.

Poppy wasn't bad, but the movie was. I wouldn't mind seeing her play Marilyn again in a better film.

Oh God No.
I think Scarlet Johansson would be a better choice.

Too OLD? MM was in her 40s at the prime of her career :confused:

She died when she just turned 36.

[Stuck In The '70's]

Its such a tragedy what happened to her. She had many more good years left.

[Brian Damage]

Ashley Judd also played Monroe in a movie about her life.

ooops youre right....I'm SO bad with numbers :(

[Mikado]

oh well, i STILL think Nicole Kidman is perfect for the role! :D

[~*Emma*~]

Scarlett Johansson would be perfect. Has anyone seen that pic of her in the orange dress with red lipstick? Spitting image! She's got the curves for it as well. Nicole Kidman is a good actress but she just isn't young enough and she doesn't have the knock-out curves that Marilyn had.

LOL, Scarlett is actually STUNNING, those pics don't do her justice.

[Mikado]

Very true, but on the bright side she'll always be remembered as beautiful. She never grew old, and aged like alot of Hollywood starlets who were beautiful in their prime. Marilyn is forever young and stunningly attractive.
