YES!!!
I could never figure out whom Hyde reminds me of.
Thank you!

Don't know about the rest of them, but Lindsey would have to be played by a British actor (we do pretty good American accents when we have to, look at Catherine Zeta Jones for heavens sakes) called James Frain. He's a link to a picture of him:

Yum yum.

OK, well, try these guys out for the roles......


Lindsey Buckingham - Colin Farrell

Stevie Nicks - Drew Barrymore (some experience there... sniff, sniff....)

John McVie - Keanu Reeves (well, if he grows a beard he could pull it off, John doesn't say much either.... Plus he can play bass too.. )

Mick Fleetwood - he could play himself, with his acting skills and his wonderful Star Trek appearance.

Christine McVie - Helen Hunt

Peter Green - Dill from series one of the Osbournes ( the dude that scratched his head a lot)

Bob Welch - Bob Welch.. Nobody can play Bob but himself.. The man is an original

[strandinthewind]

Christine - Chili's correct - Helen Mirran (Sp.?)
Stevie - Cate Blanchett (sp.?) see the Lord of the Rings for an example

Mick - Maggie Smith

LB - who knows
John - an actor not scared of a part with no dialogue

[Lorraine]

Stevie - Kim Cattrell (Samantha/Sex & the City)
Mick - Oh yes, definately JOHN CLEESE
Christine McVie - Meryl Streep or Glenn Close
Lindsey Buckingham - David Hasslehoff
John McVie - Himself........ bless, he could just stand there and play bass awwwwwwwwww love him really

[Lew]

this a fun topic......here's my picks

Chris = Cate Blanchett
Stevie = Maria Bello
Lindsey = Colin Firth
Mick = Jonathan Pryce ....when he was younger and CREEPIER looking like in 1983's "Something Wicked This Way Comes". Maybe he can be de-aged...sort of like reverse engineering or something!! LOL!!
John = ??? I have no idea for John ;-)

Umm...check out Charles Martin Smith here:




I think he could pass for Bob Welch pretty easily.

Here's Bob:


And, since I've set the precedent for presenting photographic evidence for my casting choices:

Here's Cate Blanchett for Christine (I know, I said Helen Mirren):



She could play "young Christine"...and Helen the "older Christine":




Now...Rob Lowe doing his best Law & Order pose:



The real thing:

And, now, Harry Shearer as John McVie:



The Real John McVie:




Linda Blair (a change of hairstyle and she gets the part!)

[Livia]

Oh now that is just hilarous! But strangely enough I think that Melody Thomas Scott (Nikki) would fit the older Stevie role perfectly!

Slap some brown contacts on her- use your imagination...

Melody Thomas Scott

How about Brittany Hodges from Y&R for younger Stevie? (Still looking for a decent pic of her, and she's not a bad singer!)

[Livia]

Stevie = Maria Bello

Good one!

[chiliD]

Sorry, I just don't see Maria Bello being a convincing "Stevie".

Please, give some photographic evidence for that choice.

[Johnny Stew]

I think Melody Thomas Scott most looked like Stevie, around 1987-1989, when they were wearing similar hairstyles, and similar clothes.

Stevie's "Rooms On Fire" video could have been lifted straight out of a 1989 episode of 'Young And The Restless,' when Nikki would wander her house, in long, red gowns, pining over Victor.
