I must admit when I heard that Anthony Hopkins would be taking the role of legendary filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock in the upcoming story of ‘Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho’ I was mostly worried about how well he’d be able to pull off looking like the iconic director. Well I’ll now certainly have a plate with some words and a knife and a fork. What I’m trying to say is I’ll eat my words. Fox Searchlight has revealed the first look at Hopkins as Hitchcock and its a damn fine resemblance indeed. Scarlett Johansson (‘The Avengers’), Helen Mirren, Jessica Biel (‘The Tall Man’), James D’Arcy, Danny Huston, Wallace Langham, Michael Wincott, Kurtwood Smith (‘RoboCop’) and Toni Collette (‘The Sixth Sense’) also star in the new biopic helmed by Sacha Gervasi. ‘Black Swan’ writer John McLaughlin has adapted the story from a book by Stephen Rebello. Check out the new still below.
