Okay. You're the casting director for a movie about the 1962 New York Mets. Who's you're Casey? Your Joan Payson? Whaddyayouse think about Al Pacino and Glenn Close? Me, I'd shoot for Woody Allen and Diane Keaton. And I'll throw in Wallace Shawn as Marvelous. What say youse? https://www.thescore.com/news/1953997

I feel like Kathy Bates could do a good job on Payson.

Yeah good idea! Do these actors have to be alive? I was thinking uncle joe for Casey

I hope you're not referring to Joseph Stalin. Although that would be an interesting choice...

1962- Starring Popeye as Casey Stegel.

If we're reaching into history, well, at the right age, Burgess Meredith could kill it as Casey. Taking contemporary actors as they are now? Tommy Lee Jones? Billy Crystal?

I nominate Walter Brennan for the part of Charles Dillon Stengel. https://i.pinimg.com/originals/fa/29/9b/fa299b3304b823dc46b7f21a822e44ea.jpg>

I second that nomination.

Pacino might be fun. I'm not thinking that he'd be very good, but he'd be fun.
