With the Jim Henson biopic coming up, which actors do you think should play who in the movie?

My picks:

Jim Henson: Jeff Daniels
Jane Henson: Maggie Gyllenhaal
Jerry Juhl: Philip Seymour Hoffman
Frank Oz: David Cross
Jerry Nelson: Daniel Day Lewis (needs to grow a beard)
Richard Hunt: Hank Azaria

I'm not sure who would play his kids, or other puppeteers like Carroll Spinney, Dave Golez, etc.

I'm not sure there even is an upcoming Henson biopic, they only really put out a feeler. Hank Azaria would be a great choice tho!
