The Life of Micky Adams

[East Anglia Fox]

I was talking to my brother about films and came up with the crazy idea of making a Forest Gump style movie about the life of Micky Adams. It could focus on his time at Fulham and his departure when Al Fayed came. Then his time at Brighton but mainly focus on Leicester, since this ws the most eventful part of his career: Promotion, a season in the premiership, the La Manga incident, relegation and resignation. It would be a kind of comedy/drama obviously.

Who would play who?
My Ideas

Micky Adams - ??
Alan Cork - Simon Greenhall
Dave Basset - Sean Bean

Paul Dickov - Billy Boyd
Keith Gillespie - Colin Farrell
Frank Sincliar - ??

James Scowcroft - Mackenzie Crook

Mohammmed Al Fayed - ?? (what Egyptian actors are there )

any more ideas people?

Frank Sinclair to be played Samuel Jackson

AL Fayed can be the fat Iranian bloke off that Ant and Dec film.

Tim Davies should be played by Tom Cruise.

I originally thought about jackson for the Sinclair role but then I had to ask myself: can he learn an English accent?

I suppose Natalie Portman did in "V for Vendetta" so maybe he could manage too...

Well it would be typical of genre to have some mis-casted character.

Could I suggest Ralph Ineson (Chris Finch from The Office) to play Mickeh

I guess so, you know the way it's going at the moment I think could be one of the greatest films of all time, I suppose it could be a kind of spoof of Forest Gump. MA's car could break down at the beginning and then he could be sitting in a bus stop in Market Harborough telling someone all about his life. Just think, this would really put Market Harborough on the map :icon_wink .

If only one of the users on this forum was a billionaire and then we could pay all these actors and get the film made and not have to worry about it making a profit.
