I think Lisa Kudrow could really well. But Barbara Eden would have to be in the movie as well maybe as like a relative and Larry Hagman as well has to be there. It would be so hard seeing 2 different people playing Jeannie and Tony. But I guess having another movie would be wonderful!!!!!!!!!


P.S. I still do not know where to edit my profile to get rid of this fox picture so someone help!!!!!!!!!:wave:

Go to your "user cp" on your top right corner, then go to "edit options", and at the bottom of the page there should be a picture of your current advar and press "change advar". Then, you'll be took to another page, from there you can enter the url of the picture you want, or choose from an available list of advars. Once your done, press "Submit Modifications".

I hope this helps!

I can't anwser for a new Jeanie since I'm not fimmiar with too many adult blond actresses. However, I *Can* say that Scott Baio would make a *Really* cool Tony.

I also think Lisa Kudrow woul be great. In fact, the more I think about it, she'd be perfect!

And as Tony, I don't know, maybe Tom Hanks?
Steve Martin and Goldie Hawn would be good as Dr. & Mrs. Bellows

Wasn't Alicia Silverstone mentioned a couple of years ago for either "Jeannie" or "Bewitched?"

Nobody can play Jeannie like Barbara Eden. She fit and played her Character perfectly, I dont think anyone could do a better job.

Lisa Kudrow would be great as Jeannie

Or maybe Alica Silverstone Or Sarah Michelle Geller Or Cameron Diaz.

Matthew Perry as Tony
Breckin Meyer as Roger
John Cleese as Dr.Bellows
Winona Ryder as Mrs.Bellows

Wow, good quesiton...

Lisa Kudrow is probably the best choice I can think of, off hand...she's beautiful, and has a good talent for comedy...

Of course, Barbara Eden HAD to be the most beautiful actress ever to star (or even appear) in a sitcom...there's only one Barbara :)


But Lisa K would be as good a choice as any, I think...

another good choice would be Reese Witherspoon.

Kate Hudson wouldn't be a bad choice either.

There is only one person in the world who could play her correctly and that's Barbara. She made the role her own. No one would ever really accept Jeannie played by anyone else, I for one wouldn't.

She still looks good enough to play Jeannie.

Nobody can/could , she's too original a charater and irreplaceable on the screen , I couldn't come up with 1 person who would be able to pull it off besides IMO ther's no one That would be able to equal the "hottness" in that outfit ! :cool:

It would be almost impossible to find someone good enough to play Jeannie half as good as Barbara did.

are you kidding, I don't think anyone could do Tony adn Jeannie like Barbara Eden and Larry Hagman. but that's just my opinion.

I agree.. Their chemistry on screen was so great.. I couldn't see any other actors/actresses do it the way Barbara and Larry did it. It would be nice to see a new movie, but I doubt I'd like it more than the original IDOJ... It just wouldnt be the same..

Jessica Simpson mentioned on the Larry King Show this week that her agent is trying to get her an audition to play Jeannie.

Yeah I heard.. but I dunno, though.. I just don't see Jessica Simpson as Jeannie.. To me, she doesn't really fit the part..

Hola amigos:


I heard the news about Jessica Simpson on the magazine show Extra. She said that her dream role is Jeannie. On that particular segment she mentioned that she wanted George Clooney or Robert Downey Jr as Tony.

George Clooney is a good choice for the role of Tony;), but I don't see Jessica Simpson as Jeannie. :confused:

But, to my opinion theres only two people that always be in our hearts for the role of Jeannie and Tony: Barbara and Larry !

I just heard that they're planning an "IDOJ" movie with Sarah Jessica Parker, and either George Clooney or Robert Downey JR. as Tony.

I like the idea of Lisa Kudrow as Jeannie
For Tony I'd pick Eric McCormack

Oh, no! Please, Please, PLEEEEEASE, NO SARAH JESSICA PARKER!!!... If anyone is going to make an IDOJ movie, they should at least get someone who's good looking...

Lisa Kudrow would be good...Kate Hudson, I can kind of see...
but I definitely wouldn't watch an IDOJ movie with S.J. Parker...she is NOT attractive at all...and never was...

I agree please not Sarah Jessica Parker
Her husband Matthew Broderick might be good as either Roger or Tony.

Yeah , That wouldn't be such a good casting idea for Jeannie IMO , you need someone really eye-catching or at least someone that somewhat resembles Barbra in some way , like I said before I have no idea who you could use that would have the same style and charater .

speaking of lisa kudrow playing jeannie, remember the episode of friends where phoebe & joey are watching tv and she's crossed her arms & blinks?? each time she blinks the tv goes off or on, and she exclaims, "i'm doing it! i'm totally doing it!" then the camera switches to the apartment across the hall where monica is talking to rachel and keeps flipping a light switch off & on as she says, "i give up. i have no idea what this switch does," and she walks away. then back in the other apartment, when the tv is no longer affected by phoebe's blinks, she drops her arms and says disappointedly, "i lost it."

what great writing.

I think Kaley Cuoco would be a good Jeannie and Scott Baio a good Tony.
