    Since you said, “one more movie”, I guess it has to be a movie actor. Otherwise, I’d probably pick an author like Shakespeare, who was also an actor, and obviously, he’d be acting in something new that he wrote. Wouldn’t it be better to end up with a new work?

    Otherwise, I’d choose a universally beloved actor who would be willing to make a serious movie that speaks out against what is happening today in America will authority, conviction, and gravitas. Like, Charlie Chaplin starred in The Great Dictator. Maybe he’d be excited to star in a movie that shits all over Trump and MAGA.

    Not sure exactly what I’d put him in, but Christopher Lee

      Prime Christopher Lee as Bond would be great to see.

      Christopher Lee was in a ton of stuff and had a very long career. Check his IMDb, and voila, wish granted!

    John Belushi, maybe a year or two before he starred as Joliet Jake Blues.

    I choose the TRON franchise. I want to bring it back from the dead and do a TRON Legacy sequel starring Elijah Wood as Beck.

    If I’m not allowed to bring franchises back from the dead then I choose the old man from the first movie, he’s probably dead by now.

    Raul Julia. And since we’re working miracles, I’m also taking away his cancer and all of the complications that followed to let the one more movie be post-Street Fighter.

      Can’t mention Anton Yelchin without mentioning Grant Imahara. Both gone far too soon.

    Chadwick Bowsman in anything, but I would have loved it if he could have had a real close to the Black Panther character. If I have a magic wand I’d cure his cancer, of course. But even giving him just a few more years so he could give that character a worthy send off and better set up the rest of his universe.

      Michael Clarke Duncan to do a mulriverse style team up with Vincent D’Onofrio against Ben Afleck and Charlie Cox. There’s a good chance it would be a disaster, but I would still love to see it.

    John Cazale - every film he was in was Oscar nominated for Best Picture, so you’d imagine this extra one would have a shot at being good too.

    Not a dead actor but an actor too old for the role I’m imagining: I think McKenna Grace should have starred in a Home Alone movie while she was still young enough. We have six Home Alone movies starring boys, it’d be cool to have one starring a girl.

      This would be great. As a huge fan of Almost Heroes, I really wish Chris Farley had gotten a chance to do more historical comedies.
