Who Is Your Dream Young Hillary Clinton?

Who Is Your Dream Young Hillary Clinton?

Well, who is it? Since you familiarized yourself with the movie Rodham when the screenplay was placed on the 2012 Black List, and then familiarized yourself more with it when it was leaked to The Daily Beast earlier this month, whom have you been picturing? Or if this is the first time you’re hearing about it, what have you been thinking since you read the post title from YOUR HOME UNDER THAT ROCK? Zooey Deschanel? Elizabeth Olsen? MARY KATE AND ASHLEY OLSEN?! (None of them so far.) (I’m sorry!) From The Independent:

Scarlett Johansson and Reese Witherspoon are among actresses being considered to portray the former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Rodham – about the younger years of the former First Lady and senator – is due out some time around the 2016 presidential election, in which Clinton might be a candidate. It will focus on 1974, when she was a Washington lawyer.

According the The Sunday Times, the frontrunners include 26-year-old Clinton [Ed. Note: What?] are Amanda Seyfried, who starred in Les Misérables, Zero Dark Thirty’s Jessica Chastain, Reese Witherspoon, and Scarlett Johansson, most recently seen playing Janet Leigh in Hitchcock.

Hmmmmmmm. I don’t know about any of those. What do you think? Before you say it, I’m not 100% sure that Vincent Gallo could take this one on. Maybe Amanda Seyfried, though? Is she good at acting? What about Emma Stone? What about Allison Williams, just kidding? JENNIFER LAWRENCE? I don’t know, you tell me! Who is your dream Young Hillary Clinton in the movie about Young Hillary Clinton’s life that might be coming a little early in her political career? (Jennifer Lawrence?)
