Elton John wants Downey Jr. to play his role in biopic
February 2nd, 2011 - 12:48 am ICT by IANSLondon, Feb 1 (IANS) English singer Elton John says he wants actor Robert Downey Jr. to play his role in the film about his life.”A biopic of my life? I’m quite old now so they’d have to be two or three actors and they’d have to vary in weight. Robert Downey Jr. could maybe play me at a certain stage,” contactmusic.com quoted him as saying.
Talking about the film John, who is married to David Furnish, said the film will not be a straight biopic and would like to give and take a more surrealistic version of his life.
“Obviously, it’s not going to be your normal, run of the mill film because my life has kind of been crazy. And I think it’s important to do a kind of surrealistic take on my life.”
