He looks more like him than sacha
Baron Cohen could ever look , short of total cgi face change , never mind leg change.

You have to take into account the pro's of Jeremy Kapone playing the part, and also realise what i have shown you is nothing to what they can do in the movies.
But also it is true they can only do so much with SFX, so the idea that Roger Taylor put forward of shortening Sacha Baron cohen's legs by CGI i presume ! is inpractical and would be very very expensive, not to mention peoples height's and leg length are related to the length of their upper body trunk,
so to just shorten someones legs by SFX, is not the only adjustment needed.
You would have to shorten their upper body also, unless your creating a unusual looking human body shape.
And the ability to convincingly act will not come by CGI SFX.
BUT AS YOU CAN SEE
Jeremy Kapone bare bones, without any help, bears a very striking resemblence to Freddie, and will look even more like him in the movie, but the better the intitial material, the better to make him look more like him by the magic of cinema.

Jake Abel as Roger Taylor
