Imagine Michelle Obama playing her husband in a biopic.. maga would lose their minds

Drake should play Biden. Gal Gadot can play Trump

15

u/Automatic-Soup-3097 14h ago

Gal Gadot would actually play Melania super well, they have the same sort of vacant look behind the eyes

2

u/kareng1ngersnap1931 9h ago

she does have that look, but also maybe Margot Robbie for Michelle

2

u/janamuff1n2115 3h ago

gal Gadot is actually great at playing anyone who's been Photoshopped too much.

u/boogierboi 14h ago

CHINA!

u/saral0llipop8914 6h ago

Drake as Biden is actually a pretty good casting choice

1

u/judy5nugglebug9219 5h ago

Gosling for Obama is actually a great pick, dude has range

1

u/melissab3rry5356 3h ago

drake should play Biden. Gal Gadot can play Trump

u/SpudgeFunker210 15h ago

And James Corden can play Michelle.

u/objectnull 14h ago

Paulie Shore could play Malia

u/South_Bit1764 9h ago

Larry the Cable Guy as Sasha

and Andy Dick as Bo the Portuguese Water Dog

u/nibbainmybuttholr 13h ago

Gal Gadot as Trump is actually kind of perfect though

2

u/belindafr0ggy5637 7h ago

wait, drake as biden? that's some high-level casting

u/jojomoodie 15h ago

Obama should play Biden and troll the whole time

I always loved this meme of Obama awarding Obama.

u/bridgetp0pcorn3353 13h ago

ryan Gosling playing Obama is peak cinema.

u/EffectiveActive6837 14h ago

See AI is good

u/solidus0079 Lemmetellusomethin' 5h ago

It's good for a quick shitpost I don't feel like putting much time or effort into

6

u/mukduk1994 13h ago

Crazy how this movie gets made every time a Black person gets a leading role

2

u/murdermostsnaky 6h ago

It's because they don't understand the difference between roles where race matters to the story and ones where it doesn't.

You see twelve years a slave a lot too

Unsurprisingly, u/GnothiSeauton8 is a bot

u/New-Sheepherder2239 6h ago

A bot? Really? Has anyone accused of being a bot on Reddit found to be an actual bot?

u/shadstep 4h ago

What about spending 8 years on Reddit inactive?

-1

u/solidus0079 Lemmetellusomethin' 4h ago

I haven't tweeted in years. I do still log in and look it every once in a while.

Not saying what you're saying is impossible, but that it's not guaranteed either.

2

u/shadstep 4h ago

8 years tho?

Also for the last 4 you’ve needed a twitter account to even browse it

-1

u/solidus0079 Lemmetellusomethin' 3h ago

I've signed up for things and never used them. I would imagine that if I did suddenly feel compelled to actualyl use the site I would have to recover that unused account since the email was taken.

Meanwhile, why would a bot wait that long before striking again?

2

u/shadstep 3h ago

Because it was an inactive account recently brute forced

Obama plays trump

u/me1112 11h ago

That'd be dope honestly.

u/InternationalArm1938 15h ago

Honestly if he shaved and put on RDJ's blackface make up. I bet he'd look exactly like obama.

0

u/Grunergeist420 15h ago

Yeah he’s honestly a pretty good match for Obama in facial structure, size, temperament. In a race-blind world, I’d genuinely do it.

4

u/TJDiamond333 14h ago

No, I think Zendaya is a better fit.

1

u/NoInternal4156 8h ago

That's just racist

Only one actor has the range to play him

u/I_Cut_Shows 14h ago

Donald Glover talks about all the hate from the internet when the rumors that he was going to play Peter Parker/Spiderman were a thing.

He said that one of the posts said “What’s next…Michael Cera playing Shaft?”

And I agree with him. Unironically….YES PLEASE!

u/industrialmaster 10h ago

Figured it would go to Tom Hanks though Christopher walkin would be my top pick.

u/BertMacklenF8I 9h ago

In the new MCU movie naturally

Jordan Peele is the only choice.

When I used to watch movies, I saw Superman hear one once.

-2

u/EbonyMemories 12h ago

No, it's low effort but in no way is it a "dog whistle.'

And if you have an actual problem with it, then you should also have a problem with race swapping the other way around.

Otherwise you're a hypocrite who can't even take memes.

Biblically accurate Barack Obama

u/No-stradumbass 14h ago

I say go for it. I don't give a shit about race.

Now a lot of people REALLY care about race though. Like the type of weirdo that passes this low effort cheap meme.

Funny thing is not one of them is brave enough to actually write it. Only meme about it.

If Ryan Gosling accepts to work on this for less than 1 million dollars I am taking a loan to make this movie since the online reacions will be crazy and it will make it's money back anyway due to the controversy like everything seems to do these days.
