Will need makeup for a closer resemblance, but she's got the acting chops for everything else.

Plus she hates Trump too.

Wonder if she could pull off the mannerisms? She's struck me as someone with a limited range in the past, but I could be wrong.

When suggesting which actress could play Nancy in the movie, I'm not always going by resemblance, but also by talent. I could also vision Jessica Lange playing Nancy as well.

Swoosie Kurtz

Wendie Malick
