London: Oscar-winning actor Denzel Washington has reportedly landed the role of US President Barack Obama in a new movie.
The 54-year-old has long voiced his interest in playing Obama, 47, in a film but feared he would be too old for the role by the time a picture of the politician`s life was eventually produced, reports imdb.com.
Washington has now confirmed he`s set to portray the president as the ultimate endorsement for his starring role.
"It was at the president`s suggestion. The only problem is he has bigger ears than me," said Washington.
