Got this from ultimate-guitar.com:

" Lenny Kravitz is in talks to play Jimi Hendrix in a biopic of the most famous guitarist in rock history, according to Roger Friedman of FOXNews.com.

Sources tell Friedman that Kravitz has secured the dramatic rights to Hendrix’s music through his estate, and that his plan is to make his acting debut with the independent film.

Lee Daniels, who directed the forthcoming "Shadowboxer" and produced "Monster’s Ball", is said to be the producer/director involved.

Kravitz is a natural to play Hendrix, from his look to his musical ability. And he may have the acting gene since his mother, the late Roxie Roker, was a star of "The Jeffersons" on TV in the 1970s. "


This would be very interesting, think its about time they do a biopic about Hendrix.
 
Whoah!
Hey, I thought that guy from Outkast, Andre 2000 or something, was supposed to play Hendrix. He looks more like him. Granted he's no virtuoso guitar player but hey, anybody can pretend to do anything on movies.
 
He's too muscular, Jimmy is quite skinny. But i don think u can find a better candidate
 
Andre 3000 does look alot like Hendrix .. plus he's a better actor i guess ... Will smith looks a little like hendrix sometimes too ..
