When asked which actor comes close to himself, Al Pacino answered "Jamie Foxx".
says does a great impression of him. Pacino says several Hollywood stars have attempted to impersonate him and the Oscar-winning '' star is one of the best.

He told TIME magazine: " comes close. Jamie Foxx does a good rendition of me. It's sort of like having a talent for playing an instrument." Foxx, who starred alongside Pacino in 'Any Given Sunday', recently said he believes swallowing the 'Scarface' actor's saliva helped him win an Oscar for his portrayal of Ray Charles.

Pacino, 67, also revealed he would consider appearing on US TV talent show 'Dancing with the Stars', but is worried his nerves could hamper his performance. He said: "Actually, I would consider it. All due respect and trying to be as modest as I can be, I am a dancer. But I don't think I would be on 'Dancing with the Stars' mainly because I would be too shy."

Pacino, who recently received the American Film Institute's lifetime achievement award, joked about the possibility of making a movie about his life. He said: "It would be called The Story. When we were starting out, , me and Hoffman were always sort of mixed up. People mistook us for each other."
