Confederacy of Dunces Dream Cast

Here are my picks:

Ignatius: Michael Moore
Mrs. Reilly: Kathy Bates
Jones: Dave Chappelle
Claude: Jerry Stiller (plays Frank Costanza on Seinfeld
Mancuso: Ben Stiller
Mr. Levy: Larry David
Mrs. Levy: Cheryl Hines (not the most inventive pairing, but they play a hilarious antagonistic married couple on "Curb Your Enthusiasm")
Lana Lee: Jane Lynch (from "Best in Show" and "40 Year Old Virgin")
Darlene: Heather Graham
George: Jonah Hill
Mr. Gonzalez: Oscar Nunez (plays Oscar on "The Office")

  1. Hmmm.. I think those characters are perfect, except the Dave Chapelle. I think a Mos Def or Common would work, because they have the intelligence, and sarcasm. But then again he could work for it? Im not sure. I dont think they are gonna make a movie for it, only because that curse is scary!

  2. I especially like your picks for Mr. Gonzalez, Jones, and George. I think Jonah Hill could even make a hilarious Ignatius.

    Also, I think the film would be more popular if Megan Fox played Darlene (her hair color would be a discrepancy between the book and the film though, similar to the Red/Morgan Freeman discrepancy in Shawshank)

    Is Jane Lynch that woman who works in the electronics store in 40 year old virgin/isn't she the cheerleading coach in Glee? If so, great pick for Lana Lee.
