Bradley Copper IS Jon Peters!

Alana Haim is playing Barbra

Meh.

Agreed, OP. Bradley Cooper is perfect for the role of Jon Peters. It's funny - Peters was such a big celebrity back in the '70s and yet is utterly forgotten today. I was trying to imagine a hairdresser today reaching such a level or fame and then realized that no one is as famous today as the most famous people of the '70s were in their heydays. There were so few media outlets back then compared to today that it was easier to become a household name.

Anyway, yes ... Bradley Cooper IS Jon Peters, except that Peters was straight, AFAIK.

bradley gay as fuk

who is the haim chick???

Fame is so different today, it's true. The level of fame that existed pre-internet doesn't really exist anymore.

Who's playing Catwoman? I'm available.

Oh, brother, Mary R4.

Peters married Pam Anderson last year. He's not entirely forgotten. Still good for a laugh.

Defund the police!!!

The film is called "The PTA"? Its about Jon Peter's life?

Jon Peters was sexy as fuck. Bradley has never been .

Gaga should play Barbra. She'd be great.

Bullshit, R12. Speak for yourself.

PTA = Paul Thomas Anderson. the film is currently untitled.

It is an ensemble piece set in the Valley in the 70s.

I hope it’s good. I have loved Boogie Nights and Magnolia but I feel he tortured his audience with latter films and didn’t even bother with Inherent Vice. Hated There will be Blood, The Master and The Phantom Thread. Hated

Streisand will have a fit if they cast the girl in R2 as her. It's not how she sees herself.

Bradley Copper is Remington Steele!

R17 who cares what she thinks? I’d like to see them cast Roseanne as Barbra.

Another PTA movie coopting the '70s using real people.

Is it just more or is there a Barbra quality here?

*just me

Barbra's going to go apeshit if they cast fug Alana Haim to play her. As the other poster said, this is NOT how Barbra sees herself.

r16 Magnolia was the fucking dumbest movie ever.

As caricatures go, she’s fine.

OP's photo is embarrassing....have you ever seen a woman so completely dickmatized?????

What murders will be whitewashed this time? First Boogie Nights (compeltely overrated) with Wonderland, then Tarantino's OUATIH (awful) with the Manson murders. What's next?

Bradley Copperfield.

Pity Jim Bailey is dead.

Jon Peters was hated by many in Hollywood. Barbra's BFF Sue Mengers despised him and it basically ended their friendship.

Who would be good casting as Sue Mengers?

R31 = Friend of Sophie

Bruce Vilanch, r31.

Mae Whitman.

Roseanne.

He looks more like 70s John Ritter.

Peters had an ethnic look. Ritter never did.

Ron Silver could have played Peters once upon a time.

Amy Adams or Julianne Moore would make perfect Streisands.

Michael Lembeck could have played Jon as well.

Bradley is too feminine in his wig. Love the blind item that he was juggling two male lovers on set.

[Quote] Amy Adams or Julianne Moore would make perfect Streisands.

Who would you cast as Anne Francis? Whoopi?

Gaga as Streisand. Her face, her voice. Perfect.

Gaga has a flat affect. Streisand never did.

[quote] Amy Adams or Julianne Moore would make perfect Streisands.

With prosthetic noses and Jewish mannerisms?

I don’t know what world people live in but explain how magnolia is dumb and Boogie nights is over rated? This is not an explanation or criticism of the films from you, it’s empty words. Explain please

It's a shame Maureen O'Hara as passed. She would have been perfect as Streisand.

*has

[Quote] Boogie nights is over rated?

You don't even see their cocks at the end.

Barbara was ugly so that girl is perfect.

R9 - Pamela Anderson must be just total nuts.

Lady Gaga should play Babs! The nose!!

Fug bitch

"Jon Peters was sexy as fuck."

I think you mean "ugly as fuck." That beard covered up the fact that he was homely as a horse's ass. And isn't he supposed to be a douchebag to end all douchebags? No wonder he clicked with Streisand. They're both horrible people. I remember hearing back in the day that he won Streisand's heart after pleasuring her to ecstasy with oral sex. EEEEWW.

I’m a Bradley-holic and see everything he’s in, so this is exciting news to me.

Will they cover the fact that Beatty’s SHAMPOO was based on Peters?

I recommended this type but the studio said no.

R16 - I really liked the PTA file "There Will Be Blood".

Jon Peters was at least verbally abusive to Streisand on film sets. And I doubt they are actually playing these people. It’s will be inspired by.

Wasn't the Movie "Shampoo" based on Jon Peters life? And Warren Beattie's character was supposed to be Jon?

I think Shampoo was mostly based on Gene Shacove. There's probably a little of Jay Sebring and Peters sprinkled in too.

r46 Boogie Nights is a boring copy and paste of Goodfellas, but with porn stars instead of gangsters. The stupidity of Magnolia is evident if you've seen it. It put me off of Aimee Mann for good.

I’m available

Charlize Theron should play Barbra Streisand.

I’m laughing my ass off at Barbra Streisand hanging onto Jon Peters in the pic at OP like that’s some good dick she will NEVER relinquish.

That photo of Streisand hanging onto Peters is very telling. She's gazing at him and looks like she wanted to eat him up. He looks resigned and uncomfortable.

Jon Peters looks rather puffy these days.

And Babs is a different person when she doesn't have her face on.

Just think, that's what James Brolin sees every morning.

R68 is way before she had her surgeries 5-6 years ago

[quote]Wasn't the Movie "Shampoo" based on Jon Peters life? And Warren Beattie's character was supposed to be Jon?

Did you not even see R56?

[quote] Jon Peters was sexy as fuck.

Thanks for weighing in, Barbra, but most people would not agree with you.

[Quote] He looks resigned and uncomfortable.

I can buy that he was uncomfortable as he looks like he's about to bust out of that blouse.

[quote] Barbra's going to go apeshit if they cast fug Alana Haim to play her. As the other poster said, this is NOT how Barbra sees herself.

Too bad, so sad!

Barbra probably won't be a character in this. She'll be mentioned a lot peripherally but not actually appear.

o plz.....peters was str8, very diffrent dear

R53=asshole.

Remind us of your talents?

How could they leave out Barbra, R75?

Didn't he basically fuck his way into film production, in her beige-and-white bed?

Yes, R78, he did.

I don't think she's a fan of beige, though, is she?

Here's her living room, in Architectural Digest.

And she had a contract rider at some point, demanding that her dressing rooms be painted beige, or beige and white.

r78 Because this movie is apparently about a high school student who's also a child actor. Cooper is just a supporting ensemble role in this.

Jon Peters is the one who gave Streisand her Bride of Frankenstein hairdo.

Copper Copper fo fopper banana fanna fo fopper.

Thanks, R81. That room is better than some of the other rooms she's decorated. Her taste has actually suffered as she's gotten older--as a very young woman she bought beautiful Art Nouveau pieces and then moved on to Art Deco, and finally amassed an important Arts and Crafts collection, and she's owned some wonderful paintings as well. But she sold it all and now she's as bland as can be.

And I AM a fan.

It's strange how Peters didn't put a bun in Streisand's oven. Did she have difficulty conceiving?

Bradley Cooper seems sociopathic.

I hope this movie is a comedy.

Jon Peters was a short, obnoxious punk in the 70s and 80s, An illiterate, loud, horses' ass. He was hated by just about anyone who got near him. The definition of jerk. Very much like Trump without the class, and that's saying a lot. Peters had a cute quality with the beard in his youth, but once he talked, well you should listen to it, barf.

R81, that living room was the renovation by tenants of the place long after Streisand left, the photo was used when the owners were selling a couple of years ago. It looks like a hotel lounge. Babs tends to go crazy, and just like her singing, over decorates everything. You can barely walk through it without getting dizzy from the wallpaper.

She MUST be in this movie, otherwise there's no reason to do it.

"Will they cover the fact that Beatty’s SHAMPOO was based on Peters?" Perhaps they'll touch on the fact that Peters promoted that Shampoo was about him though even he knew it was based on Gene Schacove

"It's strange how Peters didn't put a bun in Streisand's oven. Did she have difficulty conceiving?"

R86, you're not listening. Peters bragged that he spent most of his time with her on his knees.

He's anti-penetration.

Jews are well-known for overdecorating everything.

I love Bradly Copper as much as I love Anderson Copper. Just read that literary classic David Cooperfield and you'll understand. I think they made a movie about it starring a multiracial cast for no reason.

R84, that's "Copper Copper [italic] bo bopper[/italic] banana fanna fo fopper ..."

[quote] It's strange how Peters didn't put a bun in Streisand's oven. Did she have difficulty conceiving?

Why do you use past tense "did"? Ms. Streisand does not have difficulty conceiving and may decide to have another baby in the near future.

Well, of course. If she can clone her dogs, she can and will clone Jason [without the gay].

It's strange how Peters didn't put a bun in Streisand's oven. Did she have difficulty conceiving?

Miss Babs may have been under Jon Peters' spell, but she retained enough brain cells to know not to bring his demon spawn into the world.

❤️🙌🏽👍🏽💜

❤️❤️❤️❤️

At least they sore equally ugly R2

how humiliating for babs to look bak at havin fukd that beast

Sore?

I think Peters is actually rather cute, and Bradley is much improved turned out to resemble him.

Dint bradley cum out yet???? ev body knows....kinda embarassing for him huh

It's pretty much known that he's gay, same as Chris Pine being bi leaning gay.
