If we ever get a screen portrayal of Diogenes, it's got to be cast with Jason Mantzoukas or I don't want it.

Knowing Hollywood, they'd probably cast Jack Black

Or Chris Pratt.

I didn't known the name of Jason Mantzoukas, but seeing you're comment, I instantly recognised him from just guessing who you meant based on the meme provided.

For reference

Lol he is a gem. I love anything he is in. He had some great appearances on The Kroll Show among others.

That's one of the less extreme scenes he's done and it's still pure gold . Just once in my life I want to break a beer bottle on a bar and make a completely insane threat. Is that too much to ask?

I would like to propose Michael from Vsauce as a second option
