Or Alec Guiness playing Prince Fasial in Lawrence of Arabia
NGL he kinda looks like the actual dude
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faisal_I_of_Iraq
Close enough.
I don't think it really matters if he looks like the actual dude. It's rude as hell to pick a generic/famous white guy to portray a non-white historical figure. Some stills of him look really similar for sure but actually watching Lawrence of Arabia he just looks like someone rubbed dirt or bronze on his face and called it good enough
How about Iron Eyes Cody playing the famous crying Indian commercial though he's Italian and spent most of his career running actual indigenous peoples out of Hollywood.
