as someone who LOVES youth in revolt, I am really upset that they picked michael cera to play nick twisp. I never found the character to be awkwardly endearing, but now it’s another showcase of michael cera playing michael cera. ack.
Hugh Grant plays essentially the same character in every movie, and he rode that for what, 15 years? He still is riding that. The biggest departure is when he acts slightly more confident and therefore is actually a bad boy instead of slightly awkward and therefore incredibly endearing and the guy you want to bring home.
How about Pvt. Steven Green? War, politics, true crime, character study, courtroom drama, soul-searing meditation on morality … surely somebody’s making a movie out of it. Of course chances are Joseph Gordon-Levitt would have his hands all over that role, if it were offered to him …
Everyone said the same about Tom Hanks until he did that movie about that guy with AIDS, it was named after a city?
Give Mike an edge Put him in a film where he tells off someone ala Breakfast Club. That’s it.
he wasn’t (too much of) a bumbling idiot in Nick & Norah! I can’t wait to see this movie. The trailer cracked me up. At least he’s doing better than that guy from Napoleon Dynamite.
