Will Smith as Obama

[Sussudio]

In an interview with Will Smith, the star expressed heavy interest in playing the role of America's first black president. He also recommended waiting until after Obama was fully out of office, be it in 4 or 8 years, before starting production on a movie. What do you think? Will Smith definitely has the potential and imo the talent to carry this type of role.

Sidenote: this shouldn't need to be said, but this thread is obviously for discussing the movie and Smith's possible casting, NOT debating politics. please be mature about this

makes sense. assuming he ends up being a good president. no point if he's terrible right?

A better movie would be about the republican that fixed all his problems that he caused.

i dont think this movie's purpose is necessarily to praise obama as much as it would be to document a milestone in us history

i won't even bother quoting you cdot2four, but you're the reason why this thread will end up being deleted/locked

[cdot2four]

thats why it should be deleted it never stood a chance

[Sussudio]

stands a chance if people talk about the movie not the politics. it can be done, i know it's hard

[cdot2four]

bluray news is in the bluray sections. this is for movies and tv. will smith playing obama deals with movie news. im curious as to what people think of this casting choice, not the politics about obama as president.

skip over the thread if you don't want to read about it, no one is forcing you to. and again please leave politics out of this thread, it's not hard.
