Sacha Baron Cohen has reportedly been tapped to play flamboyant Queen frontman Freddie Mercury in an upcoming biopic to be produced by Robert DeNiro. (We hear Johnny Depp was the previous frontrunner.) This bit of casting news makes us giddy. But frankly, we don’t see the resemblance.

Now is the time when you suggest titles for this movie! Queen song title x Borat reference … let’s hear ‘em.

UPDATE: Not.

    What an absolute load of bollocks this “story” is.

  38. chris  |   Posted on May 5th, 2007

    Jesus Christ, please don’t let this story be true. I like Cohen just fine, but we don’t need a biopic of Freddie Mercury. (Complete fucking Queen nerd speaking.) Seriously, God, please. Don’t make a movie about Freddie Mercury. Bullshit.

    Seriously? Does no one here know any Queen songs that WEREN’T on their greatest hits CD?

  43. Bill  |   Posted on May 7th, 2007

    yeah.

    that one in mighty ducks.

  44. Matt  |   Posted on May 7th, 2007

    I don’t think “Mustapha,” “You Take My Breath Away” & “Orge Battle” were on Queen’s greatest hits, asshole. Besides, who names a biopic after an obscure song by the subject?

  45. jed2  |   Posted on May 7th, 2007

    Exactly, Matt. Some folks really think they’re shaming us by lambasting our inferior knowledge of Queen’s oeuvre. I mean, ohvrah. I mean, Oprah.

  48. If the buzz about Michael Cunningham’s screenplay is true, Queen for a Day would be an appropriate title. Apparently, Cunningham doesn’t like traditional biopics, so he’s taking a day in the life. So, which day?

  49. Queen was one of the world’s greatest bands and a movie about Freddie would be great. But who decided Sascha was a good choice. Get someone from one of the tribute bands. And to those who thinks the moview is a bad idea, I get sick eveytime an Elvis biopic is on TV. His singing was awful.

    Please don’t spoil the image of Freddie with someone who obviously would only bring shame to his awesome legacy
