10 Actors Who Could Play David Bowie In A Biopic Movie
1. Ruairi O’Connor
Ruairi O'Connor is a perfect example of how one powerful role can launch you into the eyes of general audiences and Hollywood itself. His career has been progressing steadily for some time now thanks to his great parts in Delicious and The Spanish Princess. But, it's his crowning glory in The Conjuring 3: The Devil Made Me Do It, which has put him on everyone's radar.
Looking at him easily emits the vibe of a young David Bowie, as his slender body/face captures the musician's look perfectly, and he's got similar energy. While it might be tough to get the character down, he's shown that he's a capable character actor, so with the right direction, he'd undoubtedly hit the nail on the head.
Interestingly enough, he's already signed onto a biopic project about a musician, so seeing him crossover into another would be quite a feat. He's scheduled to appear as Buddy Holly in Clear Lake, and while this could be a little distracting, the unique identities of both these musicians would likely be enough to drive a wedge between the performances.
