Chris Chan Biopic

There have been plenty of fancasts, memes, and debates on who would star in a Chris Chan biopic. This is all for good reason as CWC's life is so bizarre, outrageous and downright pathetic that making a movie about it is practically an obligation at this point. Throughout the years Chris' actions have fascinated and captivated so many that a script has basically written itself. So who would you like to see star in this movie?
