I can't help but feel like he'd be perfect as the late great David Bowie. I know It's not a fantastic movie but I watched Tron: Legacy the other day and I couldn't help but compare his character's behaviour to that of Bowie's some time erratic behaviour. Thoughts?

I can see that for the later Bowie years but I can't see him playing a younger Ziggy era Bowie

No one could play Bowie. He was outrageously handsome and charismatic. Same problem with Elvis These guys were all head and shoulders above anyone who could ever conceivably play them.

@nathalieusa, you definitely have the strongest point wherein you state that Bowie, even apart from Elvis and others has/had a strong 'je-ne-sais-quoi' factor that is nearly impossible to replicate in ANY quantity, no matter the actor/singer!:)
