Who would play your DP/DH in a film?

Bit of fun.
Who would you cast as your partner or husband (or wife) in a film.

My partner would have to be played by Alan Davies (complete with duffle coat) or that bloke who played the Facebook creator in The Social Network.

In my eyes - I would be Drew Barrymore but that's neither here nor there. So.,,,, how about yours?

Charley Boorman - if he were to dye his hair black and had brown eyes (oh and shaved off the tash) he would be my DP's doppleganger (he'd so get it as well!).

MissOtisRegretsMadam · 24/04/2014 20:35

In his head ll cool j more realistically Bernie Mac Grin

MojitoMadness · 24/04/2014 20:37

James Franco, he's the absolute spit of my DH! I swear if you put them in the same room you'd struggle to tell the difference.

puffylovett · 24/04/2014 20:42

On looks, I guess probably Russell Crowe.

puffylovett · 24/04/2014 20:43

Ex dp would have been adrien brody
Not that different then!!

GinUtero · 24/04/2014 20:43

Mr DH is constantly being told he looks like Johnny Depp (no complaints here!).

He's also been told he looks like Bret McKenzie from Flight of the Conchords, Elijah Wood, Louis Theroux, Frank Zappa, Orlando Bloom and Joan of Arc (???!)

superbagpuss · 24/04/2014 20:44

looks johnny deep

they have the same cheek bones, dark hair but dh is shoulder length and brown eyes

I am none descript generic women

superbagpuss · 24/04/2014 20:44

ginuetro - snap Grin.

TrinityRhino · 24/04/2014 20:45

dh would be played by mel gibson (younger mel)

MiniatureRailway · 24/04/2014 20:48

The guy who plays Owen Hunt in Greys Anatomy. They are identical (in character too actually) except DH is blonde.

devoniandarling · 24/04/2014 20:49

James Corden. I think.

mizu · 24/04/2014 20:51

DH has been told he resembles Barack Obama by a few people!

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 24/04/2014 20:52

Ex h - Richard from Pointless or Mark Lemarr

Dp - No idea actually. Maybe a younger Patrick Stewart (but still bald!).

TallyGrenshall · 24/04/2014 20:53

Seth Rogen.

It would have been Jack Osbourne a few years ago but then they both lost weight and the similarities ended (phew)

Feartheescalator · 24/04/2014 20:54

He thinks George Clooney
I think Jack Black

FiveExclamations · 24/04/2014 20:54

Somewhere between Eddie Izzard in mostly blokey mode (just a little nail polish now and then) and Steve Buscemi, both looks and acting.

LayMeDown · 24/04/2014 20:56

Ed Norten.
He reckons Julianne Moore for me...although I think he is just hoping to get lucky later!!

Velve · 24/04/2014 20:56

Keanu Reeves, since they looked like siblings when younger.
Now my OH is 44 his face has done the melted cheese thing, while Keanu remains perfect.

DrankSangriaInThePark · 24/04/2014 20:57

Richard Gere here too.

Though I always see a passing resemblance to Prince Charles myself.

Quite a few people (even out of his earshot) have told me they think he looks like RG.

He doesn't. Grin

kaymondo · 24/04/2014 21:01

Mark Ruffalo (the love interest in 13 going on 30)!

TinklyLittleLaugh · 24/04/2014 21:04

Brad Pitt. Not fibbing honestly.

He used to say I was like Nicole Kidman, poor deluded fool.

antiabz · 24/04/2014 21:06

Johnny depp ( ala jack sparrow)

Seriously Grin

Mouldypineapple · 24/04/2014 21:06

Sean Connery! Only with lovelier eyes.

Mouldypineapple · 24/04/2014 21:08

And not as old..

GinUtero · 24/04/2014 21:08

Sean Connery would definitely play my dad - he gets people coming up to him all the time (especially when he's abroad) asking for his autograph because he's such a dead ringer!
