NICOLE KIDMAN AS GRACE KELLY

SCARLETT JOHANSSON AS JANET LEIGH

For the upcoming biopic Hitchcock (out Nov. 23), the actress takes on the world of film noir with her portrayal of Janet Leigh, the terrorized leading lady of the 1960 horror classic Psycho. "The extent to which Scarlett was able to channel Janet [was] a real surprise," the film's director, Sacha Gervasi, said. "She brought it in such a way that no one really anticipated."

ANTHONY HOPKINS AS ALFRED HITCHCOCK

There's no denying that uncanny resemblance! Headlining Hitchcock's impressive cast roster, the Oscar winner looks every bit the part for his transformation as The Master of Suspense.

JESSICA BIEL AS VERA MILES

Also starring in Hitchcock, the bride-to-be eerily transforms into actress Vera Miles, who played Janet Leigh's Psycho sister. On that film, Hitchcock tried to create a frumpy on-screen appearance for longtime muse Miles – a look that wasn't easily achieved on Biel. "What Hitch tried to do to Vera we tried to do to Jessica, and the results were equally ridiculous," Gervasi said. "It is not possible to make Jessica Biel dowdy."

ANDRE BENJAMIN AS JIMI HENDRIX

Transitioning from hip-hop to rock 'n roll, the Outkast frontman channels his inner rock star with his tribute to the late guitarist in All Is by My Side. While audiences won't hear Benjamin singing any Hendrix tunes (the Hendrix estate reportedly refused music rights for the film), the musician-turned-actor will be covering The Beatles, Muddy Waters and more for the upcoming biopic.

SIENNA MILLER AS TIPPI HEDREN

In HBO's The Girl, Miller portrays Hitchcock's legendary protégée Hedren, who starred in The Birds and Marnie. The film delves into the director's obsessive relationship with the blonde actress. "I admired Hitch tremendously for his great talent and still do," Hedren told the Daily Mail. "Yet, at the same time, I loathed him for his off-set behavior and the way he came on to me sexually."

JANE FONDA & ALAN RICKMAN AS NANCY & RONALD REAGAN

Just two of the many stars (Oprah! Mariah!) featured in The Butler, Fonda and Rickman get a presidential seal of approval as they embody the former FLOTUS and POTUS in the 2013 drama, which chronicles the life of a White House butler (played by Forest Whitaker) who served eight presidents over the course of three decades.
