There have been numerous instances of real-personalities making appearances in anime. Not counting people from the anime/manga industry, there has already been some like Bruce Willis in Miami Guns and Bill Gates in Pretty Sammy OAVs. Of course, one could also say that Chris Beveridge appears /images/graemlins/sdsmiley.gif as one of the main characters in The Daichis.

Which real-life personality would you like to see in anime? This can anyone from politicians to movie stars and so on. What kind of role would you like them to play? Describe their role in that anime.

Issac Newton is in <span style='color:#dddddd;background:#dddddd'>Escaflowne</span>TV. His part was rather interesting....

I don't really care all that much about celebrities and such, but I have to admit it'd be interesting to see Conan O'Brien in some sort of insane comedy.

Man, where to begin?

Singer/film sweetheart Olivia Newton-John could appear as some sort of guardian angel/muse a la Xanadu. She's be way more endearing than some of the similar characters created for the industry.

Actresses Lucy Lawless and Renee O'Connor - as kickbutt warrior in a shoujo-ai/yuri-oriented show, of course.

Actor Chris Patton - no, seriously. I mean, I've already seen a screen shot within the last 6 months or so, from that Honey and Clover show, of a guy who looks like Crispin Freeman, another actor. Anyway, Patton could the player/pervy character in show.

Sean Connery as any kind of super-spy, action hero, overprotective father type.

Gerard Depardieu as a suave, romantic, yet slighty big-nosed and large type.

R&amp;B singer Kenny Lattimore, an a recurring nightclub performer in an anime made especially for soul/R&amp;B fans. It would never happen, as most of the cast would have to be black, but...

I would mind watching an anime about the idol stylings of Hamasaki Ayumi, or BoA (with super bishoujo/ecchi possibilities there). /images/graemlins/blush000.gif

I'd like to see a Sean Connery type of personality. But only when he played Bond. That suave, womanizing, sophisticated personality was great.

I was going to go with Clint Eastwood in Dirty Harry, but I realized that Spike from Bebop fit the bill.

Jerry Chu - Yes, I think he's that cool. I'd like to see him play some sort of angry but charismatic mecha commander who orders legions of units around. I dunno, I guess it just works it my head. Lsd:
