No Expectations babies

Our new BFFs over at Simon & Schuster, actually S&S imprint Gallery Books, has provided The Hall with 3 copies of this new release to give away. Our personal favorite review is:

Hot tub reading at its very tingliest.
— National Post

Click here to read more about the book.

So here’s how to qualify to win: Cast the movie. That’s it. Simply cast the Rolling Stones movie. You don’t even have to cast the whole thing. If your casting suggestion for just one of the roles is deemed among the 3 “best for that particular role,” you win.

The following 10 roles need to be cast. You can cast for one or all of them AND we have a TBD category. That is an 11th role to be cast that is as-of-yet undetermined. Example: Let’s say we were casting The Beatles movie and had 5 roles: John, Paul, George, and Ringo (seemingly always listed in that order) and George Martin. If there was a TBD category of your choosing you might suggest any of the following; Brian Epstein, Linda Macartney, Yoko, Magic Alex… Then if our judges were to pick your suggestion (both role and actor) then you win.

Get it? Got it? If not, post your question and an official RTH headmaster will respond.

The 10 cast members to be cast follow the jump!

    He’d have to cut all the muscle he’s put on over the last year or two, but Tom Hardy is the only actor I could see headlining a Stones movie and having the charisma and look to play Jagger.

  2. meanstom

    To show the world she will not be outdone by Cate Blanchett, Nicole Kidman is auditioning for the role of Brian Jones.

    While doing some research on Mick Taylor, I came across this photo, post- Stones, when Taylor was in Billy Preston’s touring band. Surely, Mick’s adaptation of Team Preston’s Look should prove once and for all he was the ultimate rock team player!

  4. Man, if that’s not worth a Rock Badge of Courage I don’t know what is!

  5. BigSteve

    I think perhaps drugs may have been involved.

  6. cliff sovinsanity

    Old Charlie – Leo DiCarprio

  7. cliff sovinsanity

    Marianne Faithfull – Rachel McAdams

  8. 2000 Man

    I’ll take a swing. Sorry, I use dead people. And old people as young people, because I don’t know many young people.

    MICK JAGGER (young and old):

    Young – Don Knotts

    Old – Steven Tyler. Mostly because that’s who he always wanted to be,

    Keith Richards (young and old)

    Young – Old George Harrison. Here’s proof! http://i.chzbgr.com/completestore/2010/1/24/129088349066480085.jpg

    Old – Don’t know who this guy is, but either he’s missing the point, or Keith is. http://www.flickr.com/photos/joits/4652273516/

    Bill Wyman (young and old)

    Young – Young Bruce Jenner. Pre Kardashian when he had a real face.

    Old – Doug Hutchinson. He knows how to handle a teenage bride!

    Charlie Watts (young and old)

    Young – Young Gerard Depardieu

    Old – Rod Stewart. His nose is big enough.

    Brian Jones – Liam Gallagher. I know, he looks more like Brian in drag, but…http://content3.starflash.com/article-images/w500/liam-gallagher-blickt-etwas-verloren-drein-r2.jpg

    Mick Taylor – I choose the retired Mick Taylor! Leslie West! The Michelin Man can be his stunt double.

    Ron Wood – Adrien Brody http://www.cherryplucker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/AdrienBrodynose.jpg

    Bianca Jagger – Mick Jagger, who else?

    Anita Pallenberg – Blake Liveley

    Andrew Loog Oldham – Wendy Malick

    Marianne Faithfull – Mila Kunis. I don’t know what she looks like with blonde hair, but I want to sell some tickets, and as the casting director it would be kind of cool to meet her.

    And TBD

    Old Jimmy Page (he played on One Hit to the Body) – Quaker Oats Guy

    Brian Jones – Beck
    Mick Taylor – Albert Finney
    Ron Wood – Daniel Ash
    Bianca Jagger – Tim Curry

    Andrew Loog Oldham – Richard Gere
    Marianne Faithful – Anna Chlumsky

  10. 2000 Man

    Mick T. was in Preston’s God Squad on the Stones 73 tour. He played the opening act and the main attraction, but he played a Fender with Billy’s band. With The Stones he usually played a Gibson SG or Les paul, I think. I don’t think Mick played with Billy after he quit The Stones.

  11. Suburban kid

    Very funny schtuff

  12. shonuffnyesido

    great contest! my cast follows…

    young mick: benedict cumberbatch (masterpiece’s sherlock holmes – http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Arts/Arts_/Pictures/2012/1/5/1325759908552/SHERLOCK-007.jpg)

  13. ladymisskirroyale

    The actors for Old and Young Bill Wyman were outside rehearsing their lines. We would like to extend accolades to:

    Young Bill: Patti Smith
    Old Bill: Geoffrey Rush

  14. hrrundivbakshi

    Geoffrey Rush as old Bill Wyman is inspired.

  15. hrrundivbakshi

    Young Mick Jagger: Angelina Jolie

  16. 2000 Man

    I thought about Zooey Deschanel. She could certainly sing old Marianne songs, but if she doesn’t look fantastic with blonde hair, she’s gonna mess up this iconic photo.

    http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_kwZstyeHLPU/TDO5eg-X4EI/AAAAAAAACPg/bmbdlZilGlg/s1600/marianne-faithfull-2.jpg

    Where Mila Kunis can just say, “Hi, I’m Marianne Faithfull and I’m here for the photo shoot” in the movie and no man will care that she doesn’t look like Marianne.

    Well, at least this man won’t!

  17. bostonhistorian

    I’m not done, but I think I’ve got a pretty good cast so far:

    Young and Old Mick – JarJar Binks, known for his accent work.
    Old and Young Keef – Sid Vicious
    Bill Wyman – Woody Allen
    Young Charlie – Daniel Radcliffe
    Old Charlie – wallpaper
    Brian Jones – a golden retriever
    Anita Pallenberg – the blonde Smurf
    Andrew Loog Oldham – Philip Seymour Hoffman
    Marianne Faithful – Courtney Love

  18. Suburban kid

    The punk version of the movie would have either Young Richard Hell or David Johanson as Young Mick, Old Iggy as Old Mick, Mick Jones as young Keef, Dee Dee Ramone as Brian Jones, and Steve Diggle as Ronnie Wood.

  19. ladymisskirroyale

    Oh, my TBD: The Casting Couch excellently played by Mick Jagger.

  20. Chlumsky as Faithfull is my favorite among these casting suggestions.

  21. machinery

    Brian Jones — 90s era Mike Fingeroff.

  22. I only got one offering, but I think it’s an End of Story –

    Sienna Miller as Anita
