Lily James could play Oona O'Neill


We just watched "The Guernsey Literary & Potato Peel Pie Society" and I couldn't help thinking that Lily James resembles Charlie Chaplin's wife Oona O'Neill who also was the great love of J. D. Salinger (Catcher in the Rye), before she met Chaplin.
I hope they'll film Oona O'Neill's life and ask Lily James to play her.

Interesting.

She could also play Una O'Connor or Una Merkel.

Very funny. :)

Shouldn't Oona Chaplin have dibs on that role?
