Josh Duhamel and Joran van der Sloot -- creepy good or creepy bad?
Josh Duhamel should be happy he's a few years older now than when Natalee Holloway went missing in Aruba in 2005. Now that Holloway playboy-of-interest Joran van der Sloot has reportedly confessed to killing a woman in Peru, it's a no-brainer that someone will be casting another movie about the whole mess.
And Duhamel almost has the looks for the job.
Yeah, we're being completely creepy.
But -- just look. Can you blame us?

P.S. Van der Sloot has maintained he knows nothing about Holloway's disappearance, though Interpol says he's facing criminal charges in Alabama for allegedly trying to extort money from the missing girl's mother in exchange for information about the circumstances of Holloway's death and the location of her body. Those stories via CNN. And Duhamel, of course, has nothing to do with any of this.

FBI gave Van Der Sloot $25,000 (re the extortion matter) and he used it
to travel to Peru where he murdered the young woman. What is this?

Duhamel would be good, but Joshua Jackson with a semi-shaved head would be even better.

Josh does not have dumbo ears like joran. They would have to put wads of cotton behind his ears and make them stick out like Joran's ears do.

i just flipped on fx and they had the movie Untraceable showing. the shot i first saw was of the killer- actor Johnathon Cross looking down the stairs after knocking some dude out. Now that was freaky cos he looked just like Van der Sloot. Maybe he could do the role if a movie was made. by the way, i think Josh Duhmel would take offence to this creepy blog

I think Wentworth Miller would be even better

You are sick. Joran van der Sloot is a monster and has that common dumb look. Clearly evolution skipped him. I hope they fry him and you should not even be speculating about a tv movie or any kind of movie.

Joran has always been a dead ringer for Joshua Jackson to me (no pun intended.)

Stop calling this serial killer/robber a playboy and stop glamourizing male sluts.

This article is bad taste. How can you talk about "creepy good/creepy bad" and other show business terms (not to mention "playboy of interest") when this guy has left two young women dead. Think about the inmense pain those deaths have caused to their families.

Joran has a lot to answer for.

Actually I see Josh Hartnet for this role. He is much better looking and Josh Dummel is too wimpy for this!

the only reason i even found this site is because i just saw a pic of joran, and was thinking... "WHO does that look like????" then i suddenly realized it was josh duhamel. so i googled "josh duhamel joran van der sloot" and discovered i'm not the only crazy one who has thought this. love josh, and feel sorry for thinking of him while looking at a picture of a monster.... and definitely do not think he should play him in a movie.

Josh Duhamel has potential to be a great actor if he was willing to step outside his comfort zone. He would make a great sociopath- handsome, wholesome and nice on the outside-harboring a cold, heartless, murderous alto ego- a la van der Sloot. He's a great vehicle for Tatantino.
