Last year, advertising photographer Sandro Miller and his friend, actor John Malkovich, began a portrait series titled "Malkovich, Malkovich, Malkovich: Homage to Photographic Masters," in which Miller recreates iconic images from his favorite photographers using only the actor as his subject.

Instead of just Photoshopping Malkovich into the original portraits, Miller impressively created entirely new images that perfectly mirror the iconic images we are all familiar with. The amount of planning and editing that must have gone into making each portrait is a little crazy, but the results are so worth it.
