Gillian Anderson Becomes David Bowie in 'American Gods'

The X-Files legend Gillian Anderson has tried her hand at becoming Aladdin Sane himself as she channelled the late David Bowie in her newest role.

The 48-year-old actress has revealed herself to be the spitting image of the music icon in a teaser clip of Sunday’s episode of the controversial American Gods.

She will play New God Media in the Starz show – and will take on a series of different forms including the Starman in one charming clip.
