While promoting Men in Black III, Will Smith touched upon a more realistic character he would love to play in a movie someday: Barack Obama.

“It’s definitely something I would consider,” he said, noting that he feels he’s “the most natural choice” to play the President of the United States.

Why? Because …

“It’s about the ears! That’s the thing. You know, people see the ears. Barack and I both have the ears. Clearly I’m the most natural choice.”

Smith, 43, related that he joked to Obama that while he would consider playing him on-screen, it was up to the president “to write the ending.”

Will and Barack don’t just have their ears in common – they’ve both got an abundance of wit and charm, and were born in Kenya. Just kidding!

No, seriously, can you see the movie star as our President?

You tell us: Would Will Smith make a good Obama?
