Pretenders in Chief: Paste Casts the Presidents

Page 2 of 5

Millard Fillmore - Jason Schwartzman
The goofy name alone might be enough to persuade Schwartzman to take the role, never mind the chance to play a character who looks like he was created by Wes Anderson's great grandfather.


James Buchanan - Rob Schneider
Buchanan is always a popular pick for worst president ever. Thus, he shall be portrayed by the worst actor ever.


Abraham Lincoln - Michael Richards
The hair! The nose! Plus, his career also met its demise in a crowded theater.


Andrew Johnson - Sam Waterston
As Law & Order's ruthless, bushy-eyebrowed D.A. Jack McCoy, Waterston knows his way around a courtroom-- as Johnson surely did after being impeached.


James A. Garfield - Bill Murray
Oops, wrong Garfield. But still!
