If Hollywood decided to make a movie about Prince's life, who would you wanna see play Prince? And you can't answer Prince, cause he can't act. Say it was a serious, high quality drama like Ray, only this time for Prince. Who could play the little guy? The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

Nobody's good enough except Prince himself. No one else would be as engaging as the real thing and I couldn't stand watching anyone else. | |

But would you really wanna see Prince act again? The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

Jamie Foxx...
nah am just kidding into the Foxx hype, i rather have a unknown actor really, i dont think anyone has as much screen presence as Prince. or a relatively non big name star.. the only biogarphy i enjoyed so far from an Actor was Jason Scott Lee did of Bruce Lee and Angela Basset with Tina, aint seen Ray yet...lol | |

Prince is a horrible actor! The only person I've seen who can pull off a beleivable Prince is Phil Lamar. Haters travel in packs and they are offended or threatened by klhk, haters express intense hostility toward the subject of hate. Haters are annoyed and roll thier eyes when klhk is paid a compliment. ask yourself, are u a hater? | |

I have yet to see Phil Lamar's portrayal of prince (though I desperately want to) but Dave Chapelle's prince was pretty impressive | |

Dave Chapple looked like Corneilous from Planet of the Apes. He sucked!

moderatorluv4u said: Esai Morales Now that would be interesting. For some reason, he resembled Prince a little bit to me, in "La Bamba" but he's older now. He still looks good though but I don't know if he could capture Prince's look. The person that reminded me the most of Prince was from a movie in 1980 called "Defiance". I don't know the actor's name but he was hispanic and played the gang leader named Angel Cruz. This guy walked around in a black leather trench coat with a bad ass brim hat. He had a lot of Prince's gestures too. He barely spoke in the movie, he just nodded to the gang members to beat the hell out of someone. He's older now too.
I think the only person that could play Prince nowadays would be someone unknown. [Edited 2/20/05 13:28pm] Andy is a four letter word. | |

Here are some more recent pictures of Esai: 
You may be right. With the right hair and makeup, Esai might still could pull it off. This is the guy (underneath this post) I was talking about in the movie "Defiance". He's the guy in the background. This is not a very good picture but it is the only one I could find. You would have to see the actual movie to see the resemlance to Prince.

How in the sam hill could that guy pull off being a black guy with an afro? You do remember the afro Prince started out with right? Plus he's too tall. That portrayal would come off as bad as Wood Harris as Jimi Hendrix. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
