Spot-On Impression Of Robin Williams Is Giving People Goosebumps

Jamie Costa's portrayal of the late actor has gone viral.

A pitch-perfect impression of Robin Williams is gaining stellar reviews online.

Jamie Costa portrays the late Williams, on the set of “Mork and Mindy” in 1982, heartachingly reacting to the death of his friend John Belushi in the five-minute video shared on YouTube Monday.

Watch the video here:

“Oh my goodness! This gave me goosebumps! There may have also been some tears,” wrote one person on Twitter.

Added another: “Brilliant immersion in character, simple yet brilliant concept, great writing.”

The clip’s name prompted speculation on social media that a hitherto unknown biopic about Williams, who died in 2014, could be in the works.

But, as SFist noted, the video could just be “a plucky attempt to generate interest in the possibility” of a Williams film with Costa in the lead role.

Costa did not immediately respond to HuffPost’s request for further information.
