Robin’s daughter Zelda calls Jamie “SUPER talented,” but also asks for fans to stop sending her the clip.
Fans of Robin Williams are asking for a biopic of the late comedian to get the greenlight ASAP following actor Jamie Costa’s uncanny impersonation of him.
Although Costa’s take on the Oscar winner has been heralded before, Monday’s YouTube video titled “ROBIN Test Footage Scene” quickly went viral as Costa showcased his Williams’ in a new raw and heartbreaking light.
In the clip, Costa is seen getting ready to film an episode of the 1982 sitcom “Mork & Mindy” when his co-star Pam Dawber, played by Sarah Murphree, interrupts his line readings to inform Williams that John Belushi, a close friend of his, had been found dead that morning.
The “Saturday Night Live” alum died of a drug overdose in March 1982 at the age of 33 while staying at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles.
Costa’s Williams reacts with shock to hearing the news. “No, I told you, I was with him. John’s not dead, I was with him last night,” he insists to Dawber.
Dawber then tells Williams, “I can’t let what happened to him happen to you. I can’t.” When Costa says it won’t happen to him, she replies, “Good. Because if it did, Robin, I would find you and kill you first.”
