The Tin Man: Although the comedic great Nipsey Russell played this role pretty straight forward, I always thought that the Tin Man was a funny dude, mainly because he looked mad uncomfortable in his suspenders and metal drawers. That’s why I think Mike Epps would be freaking hilarious in this part. In addition to being a sometimes funny comedian, he is also a “hey, he’s not bad at all” actor. And even though some of his standup suggests otherwise, I’ve seen Epps play funny in films without overplaying the buffoonery.
