If A biographical movie was made ...

Okay-if a biographical movie was made about Prince's life, who would play Prince and the other people that have been associated with his life throughout the years. I don't think that there is anybody who could play him. What's your take on it? hmmm rainbow.

i don't know if anyone could play prince but prince. unless they found an unknown, and then he'd be "that guy who played prince" for the rest of his life.

TTD is a tad too old to play Prince in the early years, don't you think? Otherwise, they'd be better of just casting Prince.

Still, I can't imagine a Prince biofilm. He's too much of an original. It would probably look real hokey neutral.

TTD is a bit too overweight right now.

what about Andre 3000? Although there is no-one I can think of who could do P justice, Andre is the only one I can think of who is remotely like him.
A few more thoughts:
Lead singer of Pussycat Dolls-Vanity
Jamie Gertz-Susannah
The caretaker where I work-Eric Leeds LOL wink

I think Romain Duris could do the job with a nice make up.

I think if a (another)bio pic were to be made about the Purple One, either Prince himself would have to go for some acting lessons, or they'd have to pick some unknown actor.

Two potential problems:

Andre3000 is too tall to play Prince (who is 5'2),and he has a darker skin shade than Prince does lol

Yeah,I think they would have to get an unknown to play Prince.I can't think of any current actors or musical artists who even remotely resemble him.They would have to get someone who is 5'2!
