The cast for Vice isn't just incredibly stacked — it's actually damn near perfect. The upcoming dramedy will offer a look into the career and personal life of former Vice President Dick Cheney, a figure who proved himself to be both controversial and cunning during his eight-year run in office. The movie is set to premiere on Christmas Day, and from the trailer alone, we have a feeling it's going to live up to all of those Golden Globe Award nominations it's already earned. Check out the gallery to see why we think the casting alone deserves an award.

Christian Bale as Dick Cheney
We would have never thought that the Dark Knight could convincingly play the 46th vice president, but as method actor Christian Bale is known for his dramatic body transformations (American Hustle, anyone?), we really shouldn't be too surprised that he pulls it off.

Amy Adams as Lynne Cheney
We'll be the first to admit that Bale's American Hustle costar Amy Adams doesn't make the best former second lady, but we love her too much to protest.

Sam Rockwell as George W. Bush
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri star Sam Rockwell actually makes an incredibly convincing Dubya without his usual facial hair (and with his perfect Bush facial expressions).

Steve Carell as Donald Rumsfeld
Steve Carell has already demonstrated he can take on biographical dramas with The Big Short and Battle of the Sexes, but we have a feeling former Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld will be his most impressive role yet.

Tyler Perry as Colin Powell
We've seen him transform into Madea, but we had no idea Tyler Perry could also look like former National Security Advisor Colin Powell's twin. (OK, maybe his cousin.)
