Sources close to the production say that John – who was ‘very particular’ about the actor playing him – was impressed with Lincoln’s acting ability and his similarly dark complexion and light eyes.
The Lebanese-born entrepreneur migrated from Tripoli to Australia with his family as a young child before securing his first nightclub at age 19.
He has been dating model Sarah Budge, whom he met after buying the Potts Point building where she operated a restaurant, since 2015.

The couple welcomed their first child together in August last year.
A friend of the couple confirmed Elvis’ birth to Daily Mail Australia in early September and it’s understood the baby arrived on August 31.
John has two other children from past relationships, including a grown-up son, Daniel, and a seven-year-old child whom he shares with his long-time friend.
