Chadwick Boseman: Dude has talent and I'm a fan of everything he's done so far. Panther could be the thing that really puts him out there.
Viola Davis: She's incredibly talented, kills every role she does and always brings the right amount of emotion to the role
Dicaprio: He's the man.
Scarlet Jo: Seems like there isn't anything she can't do.
Eddie Murphy: Much like Bill Murray, he's a comedic actor who can do serious drama when it calls for it and with the right script and direction, he can still be hilarious
Has Davis ever been given a lead role in a film? She's really good but I can't think of a time where she was a focal point...outside of The Help :beli:

I'm also not including Doubt since she hardly had any screen time...even though she made an impact in it as well.

I don't think so but I could be wrong. She's got the lead on How to get away with murder though and she's killing it and it's not like she doesn't have skill

206 x 734
Idris Elba
Kerry Washington
Leo Dicaprio
Scarlett Jo

Luis Guzman

Bradley Cooper
Julianne Moore
Michael Easly
Regina Hall

Aziz Ansari

Don Cheadle
Keke Palmer
Rachael Mcadams
Edward Norton
Dannie McBride

Denzel Washington
Oprah Winfrey
Daniel Day Lewis
Meryl Streep
Bill Murray

1: Denzel, everyone loves Denzel!!!! That is all.
2: Bradley Cooper, white people eat up everything he does. He speaks French, he's very intelligent and he's likely to gt the title of 'Sexiest Man in Hollywood' where only a few men that are a minority will be nominated.
3: Zoe Kravitz, she needs a movie like this to make a name for herself. Playing along side of Denzel with put her there.
4: Sandra Bullock, white people eat everything up that she does. She got the pity card when he Nazi enthusiastic husband cheated on her. And won the hearts of everyone when she adopted her black child Louis. Who is a Katrina baby... or something like that. No i think he's just from New Orleans but still, she adopted a black baby.
5: Kevin Heart, he's every fukking where! He's like the Eddie Murphy of this decade (if you ask a white person im sure they'd agree). Or if I pick a woman it would be Melissa McCarthy. She's the resident funny fat lady who doesnt have to rely on strictly 'fat jokes' to make it.

edited: kev aint on the generation level. Oh shyt i forgot my black lady too!!

Pawgs with dragons
Forest Whitaker
Lupita Nyong'o
Michael Fassbender
Ruth Wilson
Zach Galifianakis

I've pretty much got at the very least some Golden Globe nods in the bag with this one. I'm banking, maybe foolishly, on the rising stars of Nyong'o, Wilson and especially Fassbender to sell tickets. I was really tempted to go with Hanks for the white male, but I think Fassbender and Wilson would have amazing chemistry. You can't ever go wrong with Forest:blessed:

Alternate cast:
Chiwetel Ejiofor
Margot Bingham
Matthew McConaughey
Rosamund Pike
Louis C.K

This one probably isn't making any money but the finished product might be better:wow:
