News broke from the Queen camp that they have a new record deal with Island records, and are working on a ton of new material, including a feature film about the life and times of their deceased lead singer, Freddie Mercury. It’s a large role, and apparently Sascha Baron Cohen is interested in playing the role.

“Work is now fully under way for the much-vaunted feature film on the life of Freddie. Peter Morgan has delivered a first draft of the movie, which everyone is very excited about, and Sacha Baron Cohen is chomping at the bit to get into the role, in a way which certainly would delight Freddie!”
As long as he promises to never make another Bruno movie.
