10 Actor/Director Team-Ups We Can't Believe Never Happened

6. Coen Brothers And Jeff Goldblum

Coen Goldblum With his mannered line delivery, unconventional movie looks and all-round goofball persona, Jeff Goldblum would have to do little work to pull off a Coen brothers character. Hell, Goldblum has already spent the last 20 years living his life like a Coen brothers character, rattling off words with what sound like constructed tics and affectations and generally acting as eccentric as they come. Outside of quirky bit-parts, no-one seems to know what to do with Jeff Goldblum anymore. Do casting agents not see that his entire life has been building up to taking a grand Coen brothers character name and spitting their dialogue like it was second nature?

Lover of film, writer of words, pretentious beyond belief. Thinks Scorsese and Kubrick are the kings of cinema, but PT Anderson and David Fincher are the dashing young princes. Follow Brogan on twitter if you can take shameless self-promotion: @BroganMorris1
