It has been reported that Andre 3000 will play the late rock & roll legend Jimi Hendrix in a movie about his life. When I heard about this, I thought that he would be PERFECT for this role because the two have so many similarities.
This could be a BIG role or Andre 3000, who has made a solid jump to acting in movies like "Four Brothers". Just like with Jamie Foxx, who won an Oscar with his spot-on portrayal of Ray Charles in "Ray", this could not only e a BREAKOUT part for Andre 3000.
It could also help give insight into the troubled life of Hendrix who died at the age of 27. Not only do Andre 3000 & Jimi Hendrix look alike (just like Jamie Foxx & Ray Charles), but the talent similarities are there as well. Andrew 3000 knows how to play the guitar so that will make it look more real instead of someone pretending. I look forward to seeing what they do with this movie. Not only is Andre 3000 1/2 of one of my FAV hip hop groups (Outkast) but he is a great actor & not bad to look at either :-)
