Who replaces Spacey?
Cranston,Fiennes,Hanks,Oldman,Day Lewis,Firth.. there is plenty of subs. But, Spacey would be best choice, IMHO.



2001:A Space Odyssey(1988)
dir. Ridley Scott
Willem Dafoe as Dr.Dave Bowman
Kevin Bacon as Dr.Frank Poole
Kurtwood Smith as Dr.Heywood
Jane Seymour as Elena
Jeremy Irons as Hal 9000(voice)


2001:A Space Odyssey(2008)
dir. Christopher Nolan
Leonardo DiCaprio as Dr.Dave Bowman
Michael Fassbender as Dr.Frank Poole
Tim Robbins as Dr.Heywood

Kevin Spacey was replaced by Christopher Plummer in the upcoming movie All the Money in the World.

If they were to replace him in his past movies, these are the actors who would best do the job in my opinion:

GLENGARRY GLEN ROSS: Christopher Walken

THE USUAL SUSPECTS: Christoph Waltz

SE7EN: Val Kilmer

AMERICAN BEAUTY: Chevy Chase

This might just do nobody any good.
I will only accept David Fincher directing a new version of 2001 with Shane Carruth voicing HAL.

Hmm. I would go this way:
Alec Baldwin in Swimming With Sharks
Christoph Waltz in The Usual Suspects
Gary Oldman in Se7en
Colin Firth in A Time To Kill,Hozse of Cards
Tom Hanks in L.A.Confidential,Pay It Forward
George Clooney in The Negotiator and American Beauty
Tim Roth in K-Pax
Bryan Cranston in The Life of David Gale

I put Spacey only because he was great in Moon.

Fincher only directed 1 SF. And that was awful Alien 3. SF just isn't his area.



This might just do nobody any good.
Alien 3 was botched outside of Fincher's control. He's got the clout to do his own thing now. Besides, who else but Fincher has the hard precision of Kubrick.



Yorgos Lanthimos' 2001 starring Colin Farrell as David Bowman



Hmm. I would go this way:
Alec Baldwin in Swimming With Sharks
Christoph Waltz in The Usual Suspects
Gary Oldman in Se7en
Colin Firth in A Time To Kill,Hozse of Cards
Tom Hanks in L.A.Confidential,Pay It Forward
George Clooney in The Negotiator and American Beauty
Tim Roth in K-Pax
Bryan Cranston in The Life of David Gale
I'd like to add JK Simmons in Baby Driver to this list

I don't think Tom Hanks is edgy enough to have belonged in LA Confidential. Who would he have replaced?

And who does Waltz replace in The Usual Suspects? Hate or love Spacey, nobody could have played that role better.



This might just do nobody any good.
I’d go with Kevin Kline as Lester in American Beauty.



Alec Baldwin would have been a good Hollywood Jack.

I'd have Gary Oldman as Verbal Kint if cast in 1995 and Alan Rickman as John Doe.
