This is really weird, but at the same time I totally get it. This could actually be cool.

this is awesome

this may be a breakout role for cohen.

he'll break out in herpes

I can see him playing the part pretty good actually.

I hope he will be as good as i hope he would be.
Queen is my favorite non-metal band

He sounds perfect for the role, honestly.

Sounds about right, just depends on how well Cohen can pull off a serious role, because I've never seen him perform one. Granted, he needed a certain level of seriousness/acting skill to maintain his Ali G/Borat/Bruno characters, but this is a different level of serious; particularly as it's a biopic.

loool

Yea i agree with Phantom, I just don't see him pulling this off. I hate all his movies but physically he fits. I just have to wait an see i guess. Will defiantly see though.

physically yeah i agree, but in terms of acting we have to wait and see.
lets just hope he doesn't screw things up.

are we going to see gay buttsecks scenes on the film'

I hope they do it like inglorious basterds and don't stick to historical accuracy

spoiler:

he dies

this could work

I hope this rules.

this has been rumored for over 4 years now. this movie will never come out

I'm pumped. GREAT SUCCESS

Fucking brilliant, and I mean it.
Brian: Freddy, check out this riff, man.
*Plays riff*
Freddy: IT'S NIIICE

VERY NIIIIIIICEEEEE

We already know he can grow that badass mustache

Yeah he really does ^, this actually comes as no real shock, seems like a pretty slick fit. I think he'll actually pull this one off pretty well

*Sex Explosion

I have no doubt that he can pull it off and the facet that looks almost EXACTLY like Freddie doesn't hurt

this is gonna be amazing

Noice!

cohen. hmmm. needs moar snaggle teeth

sacha baron cohen doing something actually serious. is it true?

the fact that hes involved in something homosexual doesnt really surprise me though.

Mah name a Freddie, I lika you!

"What kind of dog is this?"

Seriously though, can the man actually sing?

are we going to see gay buttsecks scenes on the film'

I think he'll be awesome.. Did no one see him in Sweeney Todd????

Very Nice!

COCKSUCKERSON

"Seriously though, can the man actually sing?"

Watch Sweeney Todd. He can definitely sing

this is cool

He's got the skills and the looks.

sweeeeeeeeeeeeet.

does it matter if he can sing? they can dub things over.

what's going to come out first? this our duke nukem forever?

he can sing but not as well as the original.

pretty excited for this.

Cohen is an incredibly talented guy, and I have no doubt he can pull this off. He's no idiot, not by any stretch of the imagination, and has so much respect for Mercury that he'll want to play this right more than anything. The only SLIGHT stumbling block is the height difference (Mercury was 5'9, Cohen is nearer 6'6 I believe) but that could, of course, be easily fixed using articulate filming.

I think I'd be most worried about Cohen trying to destroy the production with his antics.

so so so hawt

awesome

kind of disappointing that his wife had a body double for Wedding Crashers.

being a fan of both cohen and queen, i think this could work. i think it could be fantastic actually. i am excite!

This actually sounds awesome.

I hate Lou Holtz

This news is win.

He can sing. Kind of. Once again, it'll be interesting to see him in serious mode, now on two levels.
TO SHAVE-A THE BEARRRRD! TO SHAVE-A THE FACEEEE!

its just the moustache
