Rob Lowe has dressed up like Netflix’s Tiger King star Joe Exotic and now people are hoping he’s starring in a movie or series about the former zookeeper turned convicted felon. Rob Lowe turned to his official Instagram account where he has 1.5 million followers. Calling himself “Rob Exotic,” the 56-year-old actor stated that he and Ryan Murphy are in talks regarding a Joe Exotic project starring Rob. Rob donned a camo cap that said “Bass Pro Shops” wore a long, blonde mullet, and wore earrings similar to those Joe Exotic wore throughout the popular docuseries. Rob chose a shirt with a floral and big cats print and snuggled his pet dog instead of a tiger. Rob’s son John left a comment asking his father to “Please put the dog down” as this was traumatizing.
