I saw the image and also thought it looked like Jamie Foxx next to him, but my take was “Damn, Jamie Foxx is a time traveller!”

Robert Johnson.
Now there is an R rated movie just waiting to be made. Comedy, Pathos, American History and American music all rolled into one. Plus being buried in three different graves in three different cemeteries, maybe a little Zombie & Voodoo for added interest.

He was known to sleep with ugly women, and did so one time too many as he was poisoned with strychnine and died a horrible death over a period of many hours.

Jamie Fox. Often near talent but never having it himself. Yep, could be him.

Jamie Fox. Often near talent but never having it himself. Yep, could be him. Two sad things that I remember about Tom Cruise, are, that in the movie "Collateral" where he and Jamie Fox are almost the only characters, Fox out acts him, the other, is that in the movie "Eyes Wide Shut", Cruise and Nicole Kidman have a long intense, bedroom scene, and SHE out acts him as well.

I have the boxed set as well. Great stuff, obviously, since so many have ripped him off musically.
