Billy Zane made a stunning transformation into late film actor Marlon Brando.
The 58-year-old appeared as a spitting image of Brando’s Don Vito Corleone from Francis Ford Coppola’s 1972 mob drama, “The Godfather.”
Zane is playing Brando, who died in 2004 at age 80, in the upcoming biopic, “Waltzing with Brando.”
Zane looked unrecognizable as he wore a black tuxedo, a white button-up and cufflinks, as well as a rose pinned to his jacket. His gray hair was combed back, and he sported a mustache while he appeared as an uncanny version of Brando.

The memoir focuses on “the story of a young Los Angeles architect who found himself, quite unexpectedly, living on an unpopulated atoll in the South Pacific with his client, Marlon Brando.”
Most of the biopic was filmed in Tetiaroa, where Brando and Judge worked on sustainable architecture and practices.
