Yeah so it's really cool that this movie is moving towards getting made, adding director Edward Zwick, but uh...I'm really not keen on Tobey Maguire playing Bobby Fischer (or anyone else in any movie for that matter).
The kibitzers on Chessgames are naming everyone from Jim Carrey to Johnny Depp.
Who would you have in mind?
My personal pet choice has always been Ryan Gosling.
Oscar-nominated actor, 31-years-old, known for playing intense and troubled young men...and even portrayed an Anti-Semitic Jew already in "The Believer." He also has a New York accent naturally and his voice is a dead-ringer for Fischer's...
