get Russell Crowe to play along with this. Not to mention those past presidents, especially since some have been deceased for quite some time! If anyone can do it though, it's John Oliver.

(205,467 posts)4. LOL! That was my first thought! Is he really participating in this??
Of course I cringed over what they did to Jimmy Carter - but like the real president, he kept smiling through the whole thing!
And he's had fun with these wax presidents before, I was hoping that they could be repaired - and they all were real presidents.

He's sort of Hollywood's invisible man, the guy nobody notices while playing lead roles in top movies. Those stunts had to be awfully expensive, even without living actors.
