Watch The First Trailer For ‘Jimi: All Is By My Side’ Starring Andre Benjamin As Hendrix

There’s no mistaking that Andre Benjamin (aka Andre 3000 from hip-hop outfit OutKast) bears a striking resemblance to Jimi Hendrix in this first trailer for JIMI: ALL IS BY MY SIDE, a biopic of the legendary performer. The film centers on Hendrix’s time in London, and has a stellar supporting cast that includes Imogen Poots and Hayley Atwell.

Covering a year in Hendrix’s life from 1966-67 as an unknown backup guitarist playing New York’s Cheetah Club to making his mark in London’s music scene up until his Monterey Pop triumph, the film presents an intimate portrait of the sensitive young musician on the verge of becoming a rock legend.

The film is set to land in UK cinemas in August, and in the US on September 26. Watch the stunning first trailer below.
