Mitt Romney already has in mind who he would want to portray him if someone was to make a movie about his life. Mitt said this actor is his favorite of all time and will play him with justice, too bad for Mitt they look nothing alike and the actor is a good 20 years older than him and retired. Luckily for Mitt, it doesn’t look like anyone wants to make a movie about his life anytime soon so he has some time to pick out another lead actor. Read more below.

Julie A.

Mitt Romney has found the perfect big-screen dopplegänger. And it’s not Clint Eastwood.

Appearing on ABC’s Live! With Kelly and Michael, the Republican presidential candidate was asked what Hollywood star he’d most like to see portray him in a movie. His reply?

Gene Hackman!
While Romney confessed the screen legend is his “favorite actor,” alas, Hackman’s firmly ensconced in retirement following his swan song, 2004’s Welcome to Mooseport and has no plans to make a comeback. Not to mention the fact the two-time Oscar winner is now 82, a generation older than the 65-year-old former governor (who—all due respect to Gene—has a full mop of hair).

Hackman’s other memorable films include The French Connection, The Conversation, Superman I & II, Crimson Tide, No Way Out, Enemy of the State and The Royal Tenenbaums.
