In the looks department, I think Johnny Depp is a bit thin, and he doesn't share any of the body characteristics of Persian descendants. I know he has a very distant African-American connection, but he doesn't seem to have any trait that the western world would describe as "ethnic." I think they should go with a person of color over a white guy with a glued on mustache.

I prefer an anthology, live albums or finished songs from scratch instead of a fuckin' biopic who will tell us things that everybody knows, IMHO.

Depp at 60 would be great portraying Freddie at 30.

With all due respect, replace "Let's have sex" with "Let's ave a Depp Queen biopic"
:P

Freddie never looked like a haggard old heroin addict, so no. He would never work.

If the original post had been 2005 I could still just about understand it, but in 2015 when the original poster wrote this, Depp was already 52!!!
I think Depp could have played Freddie 20 or 15 years ago (and if the film had been right I think he could have done a good job potentially), but 15 years ago has to have been the limit.
