So I was reading PerezHilton (don't judge! It's my guilty pleasure!) and I came across this which led me to this and I am just jskldjfaksjdksjd?! Ya know? All the deets are in the second link, but if you're too lazy:

Sacha Baron Cohen will be playing Freddie Mercury in a Queen biopic.

Production begins in 2011.

Movie focuses on band's early years and the Live Aid Perfomance (script in the works)

Still unsure if Cohen will sing or if Freddie's vocals will be used. But this makes me hyperventilate like a mad woman. I'm excited because it's Queen and I loved the Live Aid Performance (curse my birth being years after!!). I'm still a little iffy about Sacha Cohen as Freddie Mercury because the only movie I saw him in was Borat (ver' nice) and it was just in little clips (D8). I can't wait to see this! Or I can just go watch Live Aid on Youtube.

Anyway, thoughts?

This is big news.
I liked this project more when it was a Freddie biopic and not a Queen biopic.
But I guess that let's them make Live Aid the climax.

Thank you so much for posting these links!

When I was doing more searches for this, it was described as being either a Queen biopic or a Freddie Mercury biopic. Either way, there is gonna be some Freddie Mercury invasion going on.

And you're welcome! Just thought I'd share :)
