Buckleys Resonating With Hollywood Producer

So a guy in Hollywood wants to make a movie about Jeff and Tim Buckley? Sounds interesting, but I don't know if it would work. It would take a lot of expertise to get Jeff and Tim "right" and I'm sure a lot of fans and personal friends of Jeff would criticize every detail. However, if it is made, I'm sure I'll see it anyway just out of curiousity.

This development brings the question of who would play Jeff? I've got a few candidates in mind, so let's take a look. First, here's what Jeff looked like:



So, now that we all know how Jeff looked like, I was thinking one of these three actors to portray him:



Jared Leto



Colin Farrell



or Stuart Townsend

I'm thinking that Jared Leto would be a great choice because he's got that boyish charm and sensitivity to him. He can probably also play a smartass, like Jeff could be sometimes. My second choice is Colin Farrell because he's got the eyebrows for the part. However, he may be a little too old and a little too dark to play Jeff. Stuart is a maybe. He doesn't really look a whole lot like Jeff, but I think he could pull it off if he wanted to.

What do you all think? Colin, Jared or Stuart? I have no idea who would play Tim. Whoever it is better be able to grow a big afro.
