It’s not a casting decision that we would have made on the spot, but after checking out this first image of Oscar-winner Anthony Hopkins as the Oscar-snubbed master of suspense, it’s hard to get off our mind!

Thanks to People (via Collider) for the image!

No word yet on if all that extra neck is prosthetic or pure Hopkins, but he does bear an uncanny resemblance to the famous director, doesn’t he?
