Steven Spielberg is currently busy shooting Lincoln, which follows the sixteenth President of the United States as he guides the North to victory during the Civil War. Abe Lincoln is played by Daniel Day Lewis, who more or less has transformed himself in an uncanny resemblance to the President. Rumour has it that Day-Lewis has only been speaking in a Lincoln like accent since March, just to perfect the the tones. Besides the Irish man, the movie also stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Tommy Lee Jones and Jared Harris.
@UVAMichael (who’s twitter account no longer exists) posted the below image of Abe Lincoln eating breakfast. You gotta hand it DDL, it’s a phenomenal look and credit to the casting director and Spielberg for seeing it! Below is the image and also, for comparison a pic of Abe Lincoln too.
