I heard that Johnny Deep may take the role. Saw on the net that rumors about Sacha Baron Cohen are not true. |
| Treasure Moment 10.08.2007 18:47 |
i hope its someone from iran, would be fake to take a white guy |
| Ms. Rebel 10.08.2007 18:49 |
Yes I think that they should take someone who really looks like Freddie, someone who is never heard of. |
| Lester Burnham 10.08.2007 18:52 |
ONLY FREDDIE COULD PLAY HIMSELF ANYONE ELSE WILL PALE IN COMPARISON |
| Ms. Rebel 10.08.2007 18:57 |
TRUE! But if they are making movie, they should take someone who really can take that role, I don't like idea of Sacha and Johnny...But if I need to chose one of them-Johnny. With moustache and make up, he would look more like Freddie than Sacha....But as I said, I don't like idea of Sacha and Johnny. . . |
| Dusta 10.08.2007 19:14 |
This is my concern, as well. While I find the idea of a biopic about Freddie exciting, I simply cannot imagine who could possibly capture Freddie's character adequately. Such an unlikely combination of power and delicacy, rock star charisma and, well...geekiness(I mean this in the best possible way), genius and simplicity.
I just really can't imagine that this will be an easy role to cast. I hope they do give it considerable thought.Lester Burnham wrote: ONLY FREDDIE COULD PLAY HIMSELF ANYONE ELSE WILL PALE IN COMPARISON |

*Killer Queen* wrote: Yes I think that they should take someone who really looks like Freddie, someone who is never heard of.Agreed. It should be an unknown, but I don't think Freddie would have wanted a movie done about his life, since he was such a private person and all... |
| Ms. Rebel 10.08.2007 19:43 |
Yes he was really private pearson, and I don't like the idea that actor must sing for the role because no-one can sing like Freddie. If they chose someone, they should put playback in singing scens...... |
| gmhmagic 10.08.2007 19:51 |
The advantage of having a famous actor playing Freddie is that a lot of people who ignore Queen´s music (but are, for example, Johnny Depp fans) would get into the Queen world...! |
| deleted user 10.08.2007 20:38 |
I hope they don't make one. |
| beautifulsoup 10.08.2007 20:42 |
I'd rather not see it. But if it has to be done, then it's gotta be Depp. |
| steven 35638 10.08.2007 20:46 |
I read in an interview (between the director of the upcoming movie and some other guy) that for the segments of the movie where singing is required the actor will NOT be singing. Instead there will be the original vocals from the real Freddie Mercury. I believe you can find the link to the interview in the news section of this website. Upon the subject of who should play the role of the late great Freddie Mercury, I prefer somebody lesser known. Preferably somebody who is a REAL fan. |
| Ms. Rebel 10.08.2007 20:47 |
I think that it should be someone unknown who looks like Freddie, as I said before. I'm exciting about that movie, but at the same time angry because I know Freddie wouldn't like it.... And I bet when I see the all thing, I will be much more angry because they will do all rong, no one can do role of Freddie :( |
| steven 35638 10.08.2007 20:49 |
Have faith, Killer Queen. Personally, I don't believe Freddie Mercury would be dissapointed or even disturbed that there would be a movie about him. It's probable that he would have been quite flattered. I mean, yes, he was a private man, but it's not like the movie is going to flash about home videos of him in a bubble bath. |
| Ms. Rebel 10.08.2007 20:51 |
But you know that Freddie's treasure was his PRIVACY, in this movie, a lot of things will come out, maybe some that are not true. |
| steven 35638 10.08.2007 20:52 |
I'm sure the rest of Queen are examining this film from every angle possible, therefore I highly doubt this movie will corrupt Freddie Mercury in any way. (I edited my previous response) |
| Ms. Rebel 10.08.2007 20:54 |
I don't know, just hope that they will find the right actor for this movie |
| steven 35638 10.08.2007 20:54 |
Time shall tell. |

Sacha Cohen is BAD idea to play Freddie Mercury! This guy is not for this role! He should continue playing Ali G, Borat, Bruno....and other freaks, but stay away from Freddie! Sorry if here are Sacha's fans, this is just my opinion |

Jamie Foxx wasn't the first person you think of for a Ray Charles biopic either and he nailed.

Fairy King, because he is born for comedian and shit, besides, he doesn't look like Freddie. They should find someone who really looks like him, and someone who is true fan... But think that Johnny is better idea for Freddie than Borat. I saw on the net that Sacha will not play Freddie, they don't know who will play, but It looks like that the Johnny will take the role.... |

| deleted user 11.08.2007 22:15 |
Even though I hate the idea... I don't think race matters as long as they can make him look similar and he can act. I mean, Freddie was born in Zanzibar and they moved to England when he was around 18 or something - and I've heard the surname "Bulsara" is Indian. I wouldn't get to picky about dragging someone out of Iran to play him. If some Iranian guy can really act and gets the part - power to him, but race shouldn't be the deciding factor because it has very little to do with how well they'll be able to portray him. |
| Dusta 11.08.2007 23:42 |
I really don't think the key to playing Freddie is going to come down to race. There was so much more to Freddie than the heritage he was born into. Shoot, I am French, by heritage, but, hardly defined by that, and, indeed, if one were to meet me, one would not immediately think of me as, "That French Woman." I really think finding someone to play Freddie is going to be very tricky. I just hope the script is strong, and, that whomever directs is also a Queen fan. I do know that Johnny Depp is, at least, a big Queen fan. |
