Jamie Foxx is a great actor and seems very skliled singing reaching high notes !

blessings in kindness

He was good as Ray Charles but he doesn´t resemble Prince by any stretch of the imagination.

Before I get accused of simply being mean, let me list some reasons. 1. Jamie is damn near the age Prince was when he passed, so what period of his life are we talking about portraying? 2. Jamie looks nothing like Prince, and it’s not really a believable biopic if the actor you’re looking at has zero resemblance to the person they’re portraying. The young actor would have to resemble a young Jamie, & NO. 3. any attempts to be sexy/cool/make the eyes, etc. would automatically be funny because Jamie is a comedian first. There’s just so many reasons why NOT

Co-sign on every aspect you´ve mentioned.

By the way, good to see you on the org again .

he did look like him in that "In Living Colour" sketch

I nominate Daniel Day Lewis.

There is so much talent out there, I would recommend; Colin Firth, Benedict Cumberbatch, Christian Bale, Jude Law, Michaal Fassbender and my prefered... Gary Oldman particularly proved with Winston Churchill he knows how to act!!

Ugly joke...

You mean, like Foxx already did on In Living Color years ago? No one was saying it was ugly then (not that I'm advocating for him being in the role).




IF they ever do this stupid idea, they're best to find a no-name to do it. No one's career is damaged that way, and no one gets that upset because it'll just be that bad. lol
