Billy Zane looks exactly like Marlon Brando in biopic trailer: Buzz

“Titanic” star Billy Zane transforms into legendary actor Marlon Brando in the first trailer for an upcoming biopic.
“Waltzing with Brando” stars Zane as Brando, centered on “The Godfather” actor’s life between 1970 and 1975 as he and architect Bernard Judge attempt to turn a group of Tahitian islands owned by Brando into a sustainable getaway. Based on Judge’s 2011 memoir, “Waltzing with Brando: Planning a Paradise in Tahiti,” the cast also includes “Napoleon Dynamite” star Jon Heder as Judge along with Richard Dreyfuss, Camille Razat, Alaina Huffman, Tia Carrere, and James Jagger (Mick Jagger’s son).
It’s Zane’s biggest role in years, following a career that included “Titanic,” “The Phantom,” “Back to the Future,” “Charmed,” “Cleopatra,” “Tombstone” and “Twin Peaks.” But already some fans are whispering about potential awards as he looks strikingly like Brando, the two-time Oscar winner whose credits included “On the Waterfront,” “A Streetcar Named Desire,” “Apocalypse Now,” “Julius Caesar,” “Superman” and “Last Tango in Paris.”
“Waltzing with Brando,” written and directed by Bill Fishman, will be released sometime in 2025.
