ok, I know it's too soon, but if Prince decided to make a film about his life ...

Who'd play Prince?

What other people would be in the casting????

WHO in P's life is not necessary to include in the script?

Come on! I'd like to know to know your preferences!!!!

an unknown actor who lools like prince would be the best route to go.

Well, it would have to be.

Can anyone think of any extremely short and skinny, very light skin-toned Black actors?

Prince could play himself.

And that "actress" Apollonia Kotero could be his girlfriend.

And Morris and The Time could play themselves.


Clerence Williams III could be his father and Olga Karlatos could be his mother.

Susan and Brenda could be in it too... and all of The Revolution.

It could be like a remake of the days when he was getting his start, and how hard he worked to get where he is. Complete with his problems at home and at the club and with the girl (Apollonia).

This movie would rule.

Salli Richardson could play Vanity. Although she is 37, she looks good for her age and could pull off playing Vanity in her early 20's.

The movie should be done in claymation, by that guy who made Wallace and Gromit.

Lonette McKee could play P's mom.

Oh..but when post the same thing last week, yall called me stupid, fuck all yall bitches

that is one sick cast, i wouldn't go see it with this cast at all, yuck

the first guy that comes to mind to play Prince has to be either Lenny Kravitz or Terence Trent D'arby. or Little Richard, ha ha ha

Emmanuel Lewis

NouveauDance said:

you would think that way but if hollywood could get denzil washington to play prince they would.

PurpleCharm said:

yeah I agree with you, what movise or tv shows she has been in?????

sexkitten04 said:

no that guy from degrassi can NOT play prince!! he's not cute enough!!!

TheDeacon said:

i think she knows that Aaliyah is dead. I think Aaliyah would've done a great job portraying Apollonia

Wow... Just thinking about someone else playing Prince seems like blasphemy to me
I mean, even if you could find some one that looks like Prince, by the time Hollywood was finished with the project it would probably still come off looking like a cheesy parody of who they perceive Prince to be. *going off into a quite corner to ponder these things*
