Will Ferrell Is Actually Not Playing Ronald Reagan in “Reagan”

April 29, 2016

Apparently, Will Ferrell was never officially attached to the movie.

The Mike Rosolio script that followed President Ronald Reagan in his years after his administration and was struck with dementia does not have anyone cast as Ronald Reagan. Despite the Internet, including us, echoing that Will Ferrell would have been played two presidents on camera, Ferrell had only considered the project, but never signed on.

Now, this leaves us wondering where the script stands in the development process (especially since Reagan family members are not too happy about the whole thing) and who they’ll get to play Ronald Reagan. No matter who they end up casting, odds are controversy between the Reagans and this movie will continue for quite some time.

Will Ferrell Set to Play Ronald Reagan in Upcoming ‘Reagan’ Movie

Will Ferrell could just make a whole series of movies where he impersonates former U.S. Presidents, specifically focusing on their faults.

After being a noted impersonator of George W. Bush, Will Ferrell has been cast to play President Ronald Reagan in a movie focusing on after he left office and was struck with dementia.

Ferrell’s attention to detail and caricature of George W. Bush was incredibly studied and we can only begin to imagine what he’ll do to pull of a crazed Regan.

Gary Sanchez will be producing the movie called “Reagan”, which should leave room for Ferrell to go as big, in so many ways, as he wants with the role and the film.
