Does anyone else find it odd that Jane Fonda is going to play Nancy Reagan?

The film is actually about the White House butler but, yep, Jane is Nancy.

A very pinheaded choice for an actress to play Mrs. Reagan. 
Jane should stick to Barbarella. [tinfoil]  It was her most intellectual role. :lol:

How is this anything other than a calculated publicity stunt that deliberately raises a big middle finger to much of the USA?

It would be like putting David Duke in blackface and having him star as Martin Luther King in a movie about the civil rights movement . . .

In all honesty, as she ages, she does kind of look like NR.  She may not be a match politically, but she's probably the closest match physically.

You can bet your last moccasin that she'll play up Nancy Reagan's astrology, and make her look like an idiot.

It would be fun to have Ann Coulter play the lead role in a movie biography about Jane Fonda. Talk about payback.

Could be worse, Nancy Reagan could have believed in homeopathy

I don't think it's odd. Hollyweirdos love a chance to portray caricaturize people they hate.

It IS particularly galling, given Fonda's history, but you can't expect Hollywood to know that we flyover-Americans have not yet forgotten what, to them, is a funny old story from way back when. How could they know that Americans take all of that ancient history so seriously?

Sorry, I forgot, if it's a President or God, that's Morgan Freeman's rightful slot.

I do my best to not help fill the coffers of those in the news/entertainment industry.

They are a fifth column dedicated to destroying constitutional government.
