So I am sitting in bed and I am watching Mamma Mia! (because my taste in films and music is exquisite), and I can’t help but wonder if there is there anything that Meryl Streep can’t do.
Clearly, Cam from Modern Family has already addressed this. “Meryl Streep could play Batman and it would be the right choice,” he said. And he was correct. And because I think her latest role as the “ball-busting” Margaret Thatcher in ca-ray-zay makeup signaled an affinity for kooky unconventional characters, here is a list of movies and roles that Meryl Streep should or should have taken on.
Batman (We’ve already addressed this.)
Amanda Seyfried in Mamma Mia!
Data in Star Trek
Pocahantas
Kiera Knightley in The Kiera Knightley Story
Carrie Bradshaw in the 1980s
Ghostbusters’ Stay Puft Marshmallow Man
Rose Dewitt-Bukater
Jack Dawson (Both roles. Kind of like Kramer vs. Kramer but more makeup and less children and more Meryl Streep.)
My best friend
Honey of the movie Honey
Julia Stiles in 10 Things I Hate About You
Julie Cooper-Nichol
Kirsten “KiKi” Cohen
Any one of the Bob Dylans in that “acclaimed” movie about Bob Dylan
Blanche Deveroux
Regina George
J. Edgar Hoover
Leonardo DiCaprio pretending not to be sad about not winning an Oscar
Summer of (500) Days Of Summer
Cherie Oterie as a Spartan cheerleader
Mary Catherine Gallagher
Worf
Balky Bartokomas
All of our moms
Blue Ivy Carter
Precious
Liam Neeson in Taken
Ginny (or is it Jenny?) from Forrest Gump
The creator of the Ryan Gosling “Hey Girl” meme
Suri Cruise
Hey IMDB, change your Meryl Streep filmography page already, please.
