Who Would Jeff Goldblum Want to Play Him in a Biopic?

Jeff Goldblum stopped by The Late Show for the first time since the night of the 2016 election. On that night, Goldblum told Stephen Colbert that he wouldn’t let Trump’s win “uninspire him.†When asked how he stays inspired, Goldblum quoted George Bernard Shaw at length and totally off the dome, as he is wont to do. But the moment of the night was when Colbert asked who Jeff Goldblum would want to play “Jeff Goldblum†in The Jeff Goldblum Story. The short list: a reanimated Gregory Peck, Joel Coen of the Coen Bros., Daniel Day Lewis, Joaquin Phoenix, Goldblum’s 1 1/2-year-old son, Tilda Swinton, and Colbert’s bandleader Jon Batiste. Because they both tickle the ivories, you see.
