Resembles Steve McQueen?


Am I the only one who thinks this?

reply

He looks more like Willem Dafoe. Do you think Willem Dafoe looks like Steve McQueen?

reply

More like a Willem Dafoe with Gregory Peck style authority and stature.

You are not the only one. When I saw the poster of Steve McQueen's LeMans documentary I through it was a Michael Shannon movie.

With all due respect, I think you're all nuts. Shannon has one of the most distinctive (and frequently scary) looks on film. Did you see "Bug"?

Only in Show Biz by injection

He def. has a distinctive look.

I watched bullet the other day and I just kept seeing the resemblance to Shannon.

Maybe it's his eyes and tough skin

reply

I think he looks like a young David Letterman. If Letterman had a more interesting life I think he could play him in the biopic

reply

I can totally see that

reply

I also think he looks like Willem.
