u/Most-Quality-1617 14h ago

I feel bad for Kathy Bates on this one.

260

u/Ginger_Rogers 13h ago

Yeah, but she does have the range to pull off the role.

99

u/MetaCardboard 13h ago

I think she would make an excellent Musk. They should do it. I'd watch it.

103

u/NeuroticLensman 13h ago

She needs to put on a few pounds first so its more accurate

u/eggsuckinggrandmama 11h ago

Is that chum on his belly? Raspberry Jelly from his donut? I can’t tell.

u/CreoxatLarge 9h ago

Its the remains of the baby he just ate.

u/Neat_Writing_5967 10h ago

Stretch marks BABY!

u/butterfly-garden 8h ago

He hasn't had the baby yet?

u/MememeSama 7h ago

Most women: Money makes you attractive

u/suhfaulic 11h ago

She really is such a phenomenal actress.

Has anything she played in ever actually been bad?

6

u/Yumaa_ 6h ago

She would absolutely drag him through the mud. It would be glorious.

2

u/West-Gur4598 11h ago

At her age make it a an old man scrooge tale with ghosts and shit.

She could play old man musk so well.

9

u/Mateorabi 13h ago

So does esteemed character actress and fugitive from the law Margo Martindale. 

6

u/Powerful-Substance33 13h ago

Shes the only one qualified for the role

2

u/PigsOfRedemption 11h ago

It's well within her range, it's just way beneath her as a legendary actor.

2

u/ManufacturedOlympus 9h ago

She has already played a wealthy racist in a season of AHS. 

9

u/TazManiac7 11h ago

No need to feel bad for her. She’s such a brilliant actress she’s gonna get an Oscar for her portrayal of him.

6

u/SolidDandylion 9h ago

She is somehow both prettier and more handsome than him at the same time 💙

5

u/IndividualTension887 13h ago

She'd take one for the team...

u/saintbernerrd 9h ago

Kathy Bates is too good for this.

Although one thing they have in common is that they both were responsible for bringing Misery to the masses

15

u/Dapper-AF 8h ago

She would kill it tho. Im just saying i might watch that movie.

4

u/saintbernerrd 8h ago

Oh definitely. I'd probably watch it too. She's incredible in pretty much every role. No doubt she could find a way to make an actual interesting performance out of it

6

u/notpostingmyrealname 6h ago

She is too good for this I guarantee she would also nail it if she chose to stoop to such a project.

3

u/DrowAboveground 6h ago

I was gonna say, she’d eat this shit UP. She and Billy Eichner were the only good part of AHS Apocalypse.

3

u/Smokin_belladonna 8h ago

she played a hell of a CEO on tv, too

44

u/Ok-Strawberry-7350 12h ago

That's an insult to Kathy! She's a national treasure.

14

u/BoldTaters 11h ago

Actors often enjoy playing a villain.

11

u/ioncat144 10h ago

Totally agree, she's a national treasure but Kathy is such a good actress that I believe she could do well with this character. She's great in villain roles too!

5

u/magpepper 7h ago

She would need a lot of prosthetic work, but Kathy would absolutely eat this role up.

1

u/DrowAboveground 6h ago

Look at the photo above and tell me again she need significant prosthesis for this role.

2

u/magpepper 5h ago

Even when Charlize Theron played Meghan Kelly, a woman she looks an awful lot like, she wore prosthetics.

They can change your face in really subtle ways

2

u/DrowAboveground 5h ago

Would that qualify as “a lot” or “significant” prosthetics though? I’d use that term for like, Colin Farrell in The Batman.

2

u/karoshi_ 12h ago

I'm her biggest fan!

1

u/elzibet 2h ago

Aunt of mine met her once. She didn’t want to talk about herself and only wanted to learn more about my Aunt. She said she was really nice to talk to

13

u/Don_Krypton 8h ago

That really is an insult - this is how she looks today:

8

u/ImperatorDanorum 11h ago

What did Kathy Bates do to deserve this?

8

u/robbyrockstarOG 6h ago

It's not an insult, Kathy is that incredible of an actor.

17

u/miikieria 13h ago

Kathy Bates catching strays for absolutely no reason 😭

u/Uncommentary 12h ago

No reason? Did you see what she did to that author?

u/BigEricShaun 11h ago

He causally replies to a lot of things, this would not seem that out of character.

5

u/bilbofraginz 10h ago

It makes him seem like he has a sense of humour though.

5

u/Ongr 10h ago

And at the same time it makes him seem incredibly insecure.

4

u/Deewwsskkii 9h ago

I don’t like him either, but this is not a response I would expect from an incredibly insecure person. It’s just rolling with the punches in a bitter kind of way, nothing too serious.

She's got the range to pull it off!

u/SmashHerCrapper 13h ago

He's a dirty birdy

u/AdDesigner5025 7h ago

She would rock the role!!!

6

u/juanjung 12h ago

She's a very good actress and already played the roll of a dangerous psychopath in "Misery" (1990), which earned her an Oscar. She's the perfect actor for that.

2

u/Sarcasm_dm87 13h ago

Is this misery, bc im ok with her breaking his knee caps

u/GD_SexualTyranno 13h ago

Misery only loves his company

Her character is one of the most evil in the history of cinema lol. Trophy worthy evil.

u/Ubergoober166 14h ago

I mean, she's an actress and a good one at that. The job of any actor/actress is to make you believe they're somebody that they're not. I don't think she'd have any issues given her body if work.

Is this two screenshots stitched together or is "delete this" simply a go to response from the self-declared free speech absolutist? It feels strangely common.
