The resemblance is uncanny.

Lily James (Baby Driver, Yesterday) and Sebastian Stan (The Falcon and the Winter Solider) will be starring in a new series playing model Pamela Anderson and her ex-husband, Mötley Crüe rocker Tommy Lee.

Titled Pam and Tommy, the first images from the upcoming limited series have now been unveiled and let’s just say, expect to see James and Stan appear on listicles about actors’ extraordinary transformations for roles until the end of time.

The show is being made for American streaming service Hulu, with an Irish release date not set yet.

As for the premise, the logline from Hulu reads: “A comedic limited series on the true story behind the release of the first-ever viral video in history — the sex tape of Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee.”

Directed by Craig Gillespie (I, Tonya), Pam and Tommy will also star series producer Seth Rogen (Pineapple Express), as well as Andrew Dice Clay (A Star is Born), Nick Offerman (Parks and Recreation) and Taylor Schilling (Orange is the New Black).
