Are you old? Do you love discussing affairs while not eating pie? If so, you might be perfect for the new Nancy Meyers joint. It was announced today that the queen of older folks movies has tapped Tina Fey to play the lead in her film about the relationship between the founder of a fashion Internet company and her intern. Don’t worry, this isn’t just going to be a sequel to The Proposal, as that dashing young intern is being described as an “over-70 widower who is bored with retirement.†May-December fetishist be damn, Meyers describes the love as purely platonic; something Fey has plenty of practice at from playing Liz Lemon for all these years. They already have an actor in mind for the role but that doesn’t mean we can’t play a rousing game of, “What old dude do you want to watch Tina Fey hang out with for 90 minutes? And what would their friendship nickname be?†Here are some suggestions:
Steve Martin – Stena Fartin
Dustin Hoffman – Tustin
Rip Torn – Tip
Jeffrey Tambor - Feybor
Morgan Freeman – Morna Feyman
Robert Redford – Feyford
Jack Nicholson – Tack Ficholson
Al Pacino – Feycino
James Earl Jones – Tames Earl Fones
Alan Alda – Alina
Alan Arkin – Alina 2
