BAZ BAMIGBOYE: Jack's the lad to play Morrissey in new film called 'Steven' - Daily Mail

Excerpt:

Jack Lowden, one of the dashing stars of War & Peace, will portray the early life of the ‘Pope of Mope’, Morrissey until the moment he ditched his Christian name in a new film called Steven.

Lowden, who played soldier heart-throb Nikolai Rostov in the television drama that gripped the nation over the winter, will explore the creative and social forces that led the singer to form The Smiths in the early Eighties.

Just saw this, too -- beat me to it. She'll play Linder.

A great performance can transcend the need for a look-a-like, but really, this actor Lowden is too far off.
About 4 or 5 years ago in one of the threads here on potential Morrissey casting, there was a young British actor who had great potential to portray our Moz.
It wasn't so much that he looked like Morrissey, but that he looked like Morrissey does -- as in, his gaze.

Someone dig up the name of the lad so we can petition for a change in casting.
