List of Actors Readers Suggest for Role of Keith Raniere – If Movie Is Made

Gary Busey has the acting chops to portray a nuanced leader of women.
A number of readers are saying that I should not give supporters of Keith Raniere any space on this website. Some suggest that I may have been brainwashed by Keith Raniere and his followers into allowing this.  Maybe they are right, for I am now reporting on a list of actors that readers think might play Raniere when they get around to making a movie — which is certainly promoting him and might even help get him a feature-length film about his life.

Among the candidates mentioned are:

Jared Joseph Leto

Keith Raniere

James Whitmore

James Whitmore is my personal choice and the actor I would like to see secure the role.

The serious expression of Keith Raniere would be played in exemplary fashion by James Whitmore

 

Is James Allen Whitmore in the running for the role of Keith Alan Raniere?

Richard Thomas

Thomas has been suggested as a candidate for the role.

Women and Minorities Excluded as Usual in Hollywood

Finally, in conformity with rules and standards set forth by the activist group, the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences, minority and women actors must be considered for the role of Raniere if it is to win one of the trophies they hand out each year.

Since no minority or woman will get the role, because of misogyny, racism and White privilege that is endemic and rampant in Hollywood, we won’t devote much space to these.

So far, there has been only one suggestion among readers, and she will not get the role if a movie were to be made. [so typical of the lack of diversity, internalized racism, sexism, and oppression of Hollywood.]

Keith Raniere

Whoopi Goldberg

Gary Busey

Gary Busey was an earlier suggestion. Way back on November 28, 2017, Frank Report published If movie is made, actor Gary Busey proposed for role of Vanguard. That was before Raniere was arrested.

In our 2017 post, we took the liberty to present a few comparison photos to show the aptness of this choice and the similarities in appearance of the actor and his potential study.

This photo of Gary Busey and Keith Raniere in front of Mount Rushmore may have been tampered with. According to the reports of three IT experts, the hard drive device it was stored on may have been tampered with and metadata suggest that it might have been photoshopped.

The untitled Nxivm cat/puppet/plastic sea horse movie has hit another minor bump. Before you see it on TMZ…I regret to announce the little orange and white cat playing “Pimp Mack” refused to eat a bowl of squash in a pivotal scene and will now be replaced by a cake pop. But other than that, production continues full speed ahead and early shooting looks fantastic!

Christ! Didn’t you all know. Gary Busey is slated to play Kristen Kreuks champion amour. It’s against type because Gary is a white heterosexual male. The director believes only Gary posses the same level of insanity as the character Gary will be playing.

If it was to be a serious film, I think Benedict Cumberbatch would do a good job.

James Callis – the guy who played Gaius Baltar in reimagined Battlestar Galactica. (Nicki Clyne’s castmate)

Gaius Baltar has so many similarities with Keith, both in looks and personality. Narcissistic to the bone and arguably sociopathic. The smartest man alive gets his own harem under the guise of religion and betrays humanity every step of the way.

Rewatch it with Keith in mind.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaius_Baltar : check his photo here on wikipage.

Happy New Year and stay safe!

Ned Beatty would be perfect.

In the film “Deliverance,” his character is forced to “Squeal like a pig!” while being sodomized.

For Keith, I would screen test Owen Wilson, Seth Rogan, Ben Stiller, Andy Samberg, Andrew Dice Clay. Other parts could go to Anne Hathaway, Sarah Silverman, Jennifer Aniston, Julia Roberts, Cate Blanchet, Rosanne Barr (dream sequences), and Chelsea Handler.

If we could get Harvey Weinstein out long enough to produce it, all the better.

Hello Frank, you didn’t mention my suggestion: Danny DeVito?

Somebody else commented that Danny DeVito would be perfect when interacting with non-NXIVM members and a really handsome actor when interacting with NXIVM members.

I could imagine Gary Busy in the role. It brings the character craze perfectly. As Frank, Al Pacino would be great, too, or Anthony Hopkins, of course, when he was younger. Both actors are running the show.

Hi Frank.
Thank you for all your work. I saw this quote and thought of you.

Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable… Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals. -Martin Luther King Jr.

Frank, I’m sure you’d be in the movie. Who would play you? Gary Oldman? Tom Cruise? Appear as yourself?

Tom Cruise? Now Frank is good looking, but that is stretching it just a teeny bit.

However, good noses are good noses, plain and simple.

Bruce Willis as Frank.

And actually maybe Tom Cruise as Vantard. Google the film “Magnolia”. Cruise plays a misogynistic motivational speaker. Closer to reality than you would think.

I am currently working on a movie about Nxivm. The cult members will be played by a combination of sock puppets and cats. Other than that, it will be very factual. I am coaching the cats on the Nxivm clap. They have already mastered the 12 point statement. Felines are also naturally skilled at volleyball. Overall, it is going really well. I did have to recast the Lauren Salzman tuxedo cat with a plastic sea horse. She would not stop playing with her sash! But that’s show bizness!

About the Author

Frank Parlato is an investigative journalist.

His work has been cited in hundreds of news outlets, like The New York Times, The Daily Mail, VICE News, CBS News, Fox News, New York Post, New York Daily News, Oxygen, Rolling Stone, People Magazine, The Sun, The Times of London, CBS Inside Edition, among many others in all five continents.

His work to expose and take down NXIVM is featured in books like “Captive” by Catherine Oxenberg, “Scarred” by Sarah Edmonson, “The Program” by Toni Natalie, and “NXIVM. La Secta Que Sedujo al Poder en México” by Juan Alberto Vasquez.

Parlato has been prominently featured on HBO’s docuseries “The Vow” and was the lead investigator and coordinating producer for Investigation Discovery’s “The Lost Women of NXIVM.” Parlato was also credited in the Starz docuseries "Seduced" for saving 'slave' women from being branded and escaping the sex-slave cult known as DOS.

Additionally, Parlato’s coverage of the group OneTaste, starting in 2018, helped spark an FBI investigation, which led to indictments of two of its leaders in 2023.

Parlato appeared on the Nancy Grace Show, Beyond the Headlines with Gretchen Carlson, Dr. Oz, American Greed, Dateline NBC, and NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt, where Parlato conducted the first-ever interview with Keith Raniere after his arrest. This was ironic, as many credit Parlato as one of the primary architects of his arrest and the cratering of the cult he founded.

Parlato is a consulting producer and appears in TNT's The Heiress and the Sex Cult, which premiered on May 22, 2022. Most recently, he consulted and appeared on Tubi's "Branded and Brainwashed: Inside NXIVM," which aired January, 2023.
