I was disappointed when I heard Liam Neeson wasn’t going to be in Steven Spielberg’s Lincoln. Then I heard that Daniel Day-Lewis was going to play the 16th President of the United States of America and got excited. Then I saw Day-Lewis with Lincoln facial hair and got ecstatic. Then I saw this and I was speechless.

Daniel Day-Lewis IS Abraham Lincoln. There have been rumblings that he hasn’t dropped his accent since March. If that’s the case, then we’re looking at the best acting performance of next year. Please, please get us a teaser of this ASAP. [Richmond Times-Dispatch via Ain't It Cool]
