No, Really: Daniel Day-Lewis Looks a Lot Like Abe Lincoln

Have you heard about Lincoln? It’s a movie about, uh, Lincoln, where Daniel Day-Lewis plays Abraham Lincoln and Academy Award winner Sally Field plays Mary Todd Lincoln. (I feel like the Boniva commercials might undermine her credibility as Mary Todd, but whatever.)

Anyway, the movie is currently shooting in Virginia, where Daniel Day-Lewis recently took his ridiculously accurate facial hair out on a lunch date. Also! According to Variety‘s Jeff Sneider, “Day-Lewis hasn’t broken his Lincoln accent since March.”

Lincoln also stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Tommy Lee Jones, with Jackie Earle Haley, John Hawkes, James Spader, and Tim Blake Nelson all in supporting roles. Wow, right?
