Upcoming Marlon Brando biopic gets its first look and fans cannot get over how uncanny Billy Zane looks: “I honestly thought this was Brando”

The upcoming Marlon Brando biopic titled Waltzing with Brando has released its first official look as star Billy Zane as Brando, and fans cannot get over how much he looks like the legendary star.

The first look released by the Torino Film Festival, which you can see above, shows Zane as Brando’s The Godfather character Vito Corleone in Francis Ford Coppola’s 1972 hit. The Titanic star is posed exactly how we see Brando in the unforgettable The Godfather opening scene where we first see Corleone and just how fearsome he can be. Torino Film Festival has shared more images including one of Zane as Brando as he looked in the 1972 erotic romance movie Last Tango in Paris. Check out the look below. 

But, aside from the accuracy of the pose and picture, fans just cannot get over how much Zane looks like the late Brando. “You could’ve said this was a photo of Marlon Brando and I would’ve believed it,” said one Twitter user, another echoed, “I honestly thought this was Brando.” However, other fans say that Zane has always resembled Brando, as one put, “He always had that Brando vibe,” and another replied, “This might be the greatest casting of all time.”
