Hear me out (hypothetical): Vanessa Del Rio Biopic (Actress casting ideas)

[Sloboogie]

I've been thinking that this woman NEEDS a well produce biopic, and trying to get an idea of who fits her look and can capture her energy on screen. Please post your idea.

Vanessa Del Rio

Dascha Polanco

Cleopatra Coleman

VDR always had a strong look to her face, so not just any Hispanic chick will do.

Depends on the rating. If it's little to no nudity then you can find some Latin hotties who can act.

But that raises the question of since her fame is from porn, who wants to watch an R-rated movie about her?

 

[tallblacknyc]

Didn’t people say the old version of Rosario Dawson, especially the nude parts

Think boogie nights, think the fanbase of porn , think of all the content creators, vanessa would technically be pushed as an icon and og of a female minority in porn. Her trials and tribulations and of course nudity and sex… chaos, controversy and sex .. the adult version of wolf of wall street, none of the money but all the chaos

I see what you're saying, but...

For one thing, BN was white people. For another, it was a script about the various characters and industry presented as a story. A biopic of Vanessa would be, well, a story about Vanessa. The only interesting part is when she starts fucking. There is no story. Except the same story of all porn chicks. She hit different cause she was nasty asf but that was before the interwebz.
Now you can see all kinds of shit online. And you don't have to rewind.

I mean, I'm not against it, I just don't see the interest in a 50 year old story when all you have to do is turn on those housewife shows and see all the "drama" you want.

Academy Award nomination

Unless NETFLIX or HBO does it as a series or streaming movie.

People act like that women wasn't an icon and changed the entire industry and culture of porn.

did anybody think the nwa story would make 9 figs? There’s a bunch of interviews and old footage you could look up to hear about their story.. yet a bunch of people still went to see their movie

Rosario starting to hit that wall. I'm still "beatin", but I see her more as a "After the Porn" representation of VDR

You said hypothetically.. that’s why I said the old version.. like if they shot this in the early 2000s

I think she can still do this...



If she was a little younger?

She would be good too

You know, I think this is the first time i heard her talk.

 

[BK Pop]

I'd say Emily Tosta from the Mayans could play the younger version. I doubt she'd do nudity.

totally different bro

 

[tallblacknyc]

totally different bro

Sex sells, its A history time piece, 70/80s era of nyc, trials and tribulation, drugs, free spirited, minority in a white dominant genre, some kind of woman empowerment.. it’s all of those things in 1 Can easily make it a movie or series.

 

[Van Allen]

Polanco......or Dawson. Polanco could feel it better and do it better

 

[ThaBurgerPimp]

A younger Debbie Allen would've been ideal

 

[Leatherf7ce]

I love her and fully agree she needs a biopic…. Now…..

Does anyone have the link to her Taschen produced book?? I’ve been searching for YEARS
