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?

My current beau would cast Russell Crowe in the part but I think he'd be better portrayed by Roy 'Chubby' Brown... Confused

Just asked DH for his pick and he said Meryl Streep.

Ever the comedian....

There is literally no-one who could play my bf, don't think his look is popular amongst celebrities or particularly socially acceptable. Grin Is massively tall, lanky, ginger, wild beard and hair and Neanderthal style brow... Ha ha!

Halle Berry.

Alibabaandthe40nappies · 25/04/2014 10:11

Bruce Willis about 15 years ago.

Alibabaandthe40nappies · 25/04/2014 10:12

Cogito is he going to be current for long? Not the most flattering comparison?? Grin

AndTheBandPlayedOn · 25/04/2014 10:13

Alec Baldwin

Weegiemum · 25/04/2014 10:15

Pierce Brosnan. So I could snog him! (Dh is also Irish with mainly black hair so it fits!)

Fizzybangfanny · 25/04/2014 10:17

Another Homer Simpson here too!

Apparently I remind him off Michelle of Coronation street .

paulapantsdown · 25/04/2014 10:21

Stan Laurel

Dizzywhore · 25/04/2014 10:21

Liam neeson or Peter Capaldi :)

Dizzywhore · 25/04/2014 10:25

If we are going by looks more like Dermot O'Leary!

bourneout · 25/04/2014 10:28

Robbie Coltrane Grin

NurseyWursey · 25/04/2014 10:28

Edward Norton because he looks like him, but my DP is a younger version.

I always fancied Edward too

NurseyWursey · 25/04/2014 10:29

I just asked DP and he chose Sandra Bullock for me. Win!

chipshop · 25/04/2014 10:30

He's been told he looks like Daniel Craig a few times so it would have to be him. I'd prefer Gael Garcia Bernal but that would be stretching the imagination a tad... Grin

DuPainDuVinDuFromage · 25/04/2014 10:33

Jean Reno 30 years ago Grin

Do you mean Jesse Eisenberg?

If so, good taste! My DH has often been told he looks like the "Facebook guy"-he has the curls, dimples and kind blue eyes. So he would have to be played by Jesse Eisenberg.
I like this thread!

After much soul searching, I think exH might be portrayed by a very fat Val Kilmer with dark hair. 37.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l3xsboCdoc1qcq0mho1_400.jpg

On the wedding pictures he looks a bit more like Goran Visnjic, though.

notthegirlnextdoor · 25/04/2014 10:49

Tom Hiddleston. Tall ginger intelligent and old fashioned romantic.

Offred · 25/04/2014 10:53

Dizzy - I'm not sure how we would go by personality of celebrities we don't even know!

My bf has the personality of a dog.

5feralloinfruits · 25/04/2014 10:59

Louis Theroux.

5feralloinfruits · 25/04/2014 11:02

Personality wise, Stewart Lee.

5feralloinfruits · 25/04/2014 11:04

Actually not Louis Therous,he looks more like the dark haired one out the real hustle,will google.

Sidge · 25/04/2014 11:05

Gru from Despicable Me.
