What if Cheers became a movie, like other shows turned into movies like The Brady Bunch, Charlies Angels and The Addams Family?

Who would you cast as the principle characters?

Here are my picks:

1. Sam- Alec Baldwin
2. Diane- Nicole Kidman
3. Norm- Horatio Sanz
4. Cliff- Jack Black
5. Woody- Matt Damon

Others:

Frasier- Kevin Spacey
Lillith- Andie MacDowell
Kelly- Brittany Spears
Carla- ???

Anybody else want to give it a try????????????????????

Oh, Lord... not Andie MacDowell... LMAO. She doesn't have the comedic ability to pull off Lilith. Hell, I don't think anyone could do Lilith justice other than Bebe.

Nicole Kidman isn't eccentric enough to play Diane. I'd say someone more along the lines of... oh, God. I can't think of anyone at 3am. I'll reply back to this after I give it some thought and I'm actually... awake.

You may be right about Lillith and Diane, in regards to MacDowell and Kidman. I guess I was first trying to fit the roles with people that might resemble the original actors. That's why I couldn't think of an actress suitable for the role of Carla.

I am curious to hear your thoughts.

I don't think anyone else could play Sam. The main reason is I can't think of any other actors that look anything like Ted Danson.

How about these Rolls:

Sam: Dennis Quaid

And For Diane.......................

Diane: Michelle Pfeiffer

What do you think about these?

I'll take mine to go!
