Should Daniel Craig playing Lance Armstrong ?

Yesterday when i saw some footage of that interview in news program i thaught Daniel Craig should play Lance Armstrong if there going to make a movie about this guy. His behaviour look like much on Daniel Craig his iam not intrest i am not share anything with you to serious stand from the time of Casino Royale. The moments i feel he laughing things a way remember me to the almoost as DC around Skyfall where he is less cool hard guy then Cr but more then with QOS .

    No, Dan is too honorable for that. However, if there is ever a Steve McQueen biopic...

    :D

    McQueen's widow said Craig was the only actor worthy of playing him in a biopic. There is one in pre-production and Craig was offered the role but I heard Craig wasn't interested (his entire career he was compared to McQueen, that must have played a role in the decision). I think now Jeremy Renner accepted the role, which is just not the same thing, no matter how great I think Renner is.

    Somehow I wish Craig didn't turn it down, he's perfect for Steve Mcqueen and I seen Craig in the Tomb Raider movie and his American accent is very good for a Brit.

    Well Renner will take everything, that has any connection to DC. Why that is, I don't know. He even showed up with the same dark glasss shortly after the GG's. Its ridiculous. I don't see a resemblance.
  • Craig could make a pretty good Steve Mcqueen, they look pretty alike in those pics. Renner should be good though, he's a great actor.

    I don't think he has some sort of obsession with becoming Daniel Craig ;) It just seems like Craig turned the role down and then it was offered to Renner, not a big deal.

    Are they compared? I don't think they look like eachother at all. If you meant Mcqueen, then I don't think Renner looks as much like him as Craig but he's close enough and makeup can do great things nowadays.

    What? I don't get that vibe at all. Enlighten me?

    THIS guy looks like Daniel Craig...in a 20 years or so.

    Jeremy Renner has a very loose connection to Danny look wise. But like Brady, I'm not familiar with the fact that Renner is taking Craig's roles?

    And to the thread's topic: lol

    Nope. If it MUST be done:

    I concur! Richard will always be Hugh to me though, from Mission Impossible 2! Whenever I see him in another role I hear Dougray Scott in my head spouting out "Hugh!" in his heavy Scottish accent. =))

    @QBranch : Better choice ; @0BradyM0Bondfanatic7 : same for me lol.

    But Armstrong and Craig have the same determination characteristic probably why we compare them.

    I don't see any competition yet for Craig playing McQueen.
