Celebs React To Joe Exotic: Tiger King

Netflix's Tiger King has folks talking. And it's not just your average, un-exotic Joe who's utterly baffled by the show's unabashed mayhem. Celebrities have been taking to Twitter to try and make sense of the madness.

Tiger King is so beloved that the week following its release, celebs were already fighting for the chance to play Joe Exotic in a potential biopic. While our bets would've been placed on David Spade, since Exotic's aesthetic is pretty much Joe Dirt in sequins and leopard print, Dax Shepard and Edward Norton duked it out on Twitter for the coveted role. Shepard kicked off the cat fight by writing:

"If I don't get cast as Joe Exotic in the eventual biopic, Hollywood is broken."

Norton swiftly replied,

"Um, step aside, pal. You're way too young and buff and you know it. You could probably pull off Maldonado still, actually. Wouldn't that be fun?"

It's hard to imagine that anyone is as well-versed in crazy roles as Norton, who starred in both Fight Club and American History X. A Tiger King biopic could be exactly what he's been training for.

But Netflix actually seemed more into the idea of Shepard taking on the role. The streaming service replied to the Parenthood star's tweet with, quote, "I'm liking what I'm hearing." Sorry Norton.
