I'm confused by the might of this statement."
I bet they will finally use an "Avatar" approach by using motion capture, with virtual charakters which would mean a 1000% perfect looking Freddie. Andrew Serkis will play Fred.

"Thing is that Freddie was such a contradictionary individual, i doubt he himshelf could play his own self.
Mercurial more wayward by the hour, ring any bells?
From things written/told/documented about him you get a sence that he almost turned to a human kaleidoscope of most aspects of human nature, combined.
(...ok, the times he blossomed ALSO helped enhance it)
But how the hell you capture that on film?
You can only get away (truthful-wise) , and that to some degree, if focus to a period of his life and portait his most apparent qualities.
Perhaps a Freddie Mercury SAGA could do some justice.
At least way more interesting than Lord of the rings/The Hobbit"
A film told through different view points and multiple versions of the truth like in "Rashomon" would be interesting.
What about "Citizen Mercury"?
