In the discussion (7)
Approx. transcript time · 00:42:45Read transcript
- Scarlett Johansson is raised as a contemporary Moore comparison before Sydney Sweeney is proposed for a remake.
- For Sydney Sweeney’s husband, a younger Adam Driver is considered; Glen Powell is rejected as too attractive and Miles Teller is viewed as a better candidate.
- Jacob Elordi and Paul Mescal are rejected as too attractive for the desired contrast; Elordi’s height is also noted.
- A producer identified in the transcript as Linda Oakes describes Harrelson’s appeal to women as both adorable and adventurous; the name remains uncertain.
- Rory Culkin is proposed before the Succession actor is corrected to Kieran; Jeremy Strong follows, but the age gap with Sweeney draws an objection.
- Brad Pitt is favored over “Leo” (surname not spoken) for Gage because of his resemblance to and career association with Redford.
- A gender-swapped Gage prompts an emphatic Angela Bassett choice; Halle Berry and Nicole Kidman are additional candidates, while Reese Witherspoon is a joking contrast.
