TMZ reports Newt Gingrich is adamant ... Brad Pitt should play HIM if Hollywood ever made a movie about his life ... and no, that's not a typo.
The Republican candidate phoned in to the Rich Stevens Radio Show today ... when he was asked, "If Hollywood was going to do a movie about your life, who would you like to see play the lead role?"
Newt replied, "Oh, in my fantasy life? Brad Pitt ... why not?!
Stevens quipped, "Is it because you guys look alike?"
Newt fired right back. "No, I don’t look like him at all. He's thinner, he's better looking, he's younger. But you asked me if I had anyone who could play me in a movie ... why not go for Brad Pitt???"
Sorry Newt, you'll have to settle for the very fine actor Ned Beatty
