The “White Lotus” actress said she would be up to playing former first lady Melania Trump. In a new interview with The Guardian, Coolidge revealed her thoughts on playing the former model in a biopic after Twitter noticed many similarities between the two women.

“What a compliment. Where do I sign?” Coolidge, 59, quipped. “Between you and I, though, I’m sure Melania would be bummed.”
When the “A Cinderella Story” star was asked what other projects she wanted to do, she said, “I’d love to go back to theater and do a serious play. And then the Melania biopic, of course.”
A clip of Trump, 51, during a 2018 interview — in which she sported blonde hair — went viral because it was reminiscent of Coolidge’s signature ‘do.
Twitter users couldn’t help but notice their similarities.
Another chimed in, “I think Jennifer Coolidge could play a great role of Melania Trump lol!!!” while one user joked, “I can’t believe they cast Jennifer Coolidge as the new Melania!”
