Why does Leo DiCaprio in J. Edgar look like a vampire?

The trailer for Clint Eastwood’s J. Edgar Hoover biopic J. EDGAR is in theaters this weekend with THE HELP and should be online later today but until then Entertainment Weekly has our first look at Leonardo DiCaprio as the former FBI director. And he looks like a vampire.

By comparison, here’s a photo of J. Edgar Hoover as a man of approximately DiCaprio’s age.

Now here’s a photo of Danny Huston from 30 DAYS OF NIGHT.

Looks a little more vampiric, no? OK so it’s one early photo and perhaps DiCaprio’s contacts look a little dark in that one shot. But kinda creepy so far. I’ll update as soon as the trailer comes online and we’ll get a much better look at how Leo looks and sounds like Hoover.
