The Legislative Correspondents Association is hosting its 117th annual parody show tonight, with Albany reporters once again impersonating Gov. Andrew Cuomo, state Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan, Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie and other top political figures. But we thought, why not assemble an ensemble of experienced actors to play the key roles? With help from reader submissions, here’s our dream cast.
State Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan and Kenneth Branagh.
Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie and Ice Cube.
State Senate Independent Democratic Conference Leader Jeff Klein and George Hamilton.
State Senate Democratic Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins and Viola Davis.
State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman and Neal McDonough.
State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli and Jeffrey DeMunn.
Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul and Jane Seymour.
Former U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara and Irrfan Khan.
