Hugh Laurie as Ian Anderson
Denzel Washington as John Coltrane

Tom Hanks as Neil Peart!
Actually, on second thought, the whole 70s beard phase wouldn't look so great with Tom. Otherwise, the resemblance is striking. What's more, it could be a really good movie if set around the tragic Test For Echo days. Hanks can act.
