Music legend Rod Stewart has expressed interest in a biopic but says no one has asked him about it yet.
When The Daily Mail asked Stewart how would he feel about a film about his life, he replied in an affirmative way.
“No one’s asked me yet,” he said. “But would I be interested? You betcha. And my youngest, Aiden, who’s the spitting image of me at that age, could play the young me. I don’t know who they’d get for the adult version, but that’s not my problem.”
The recent success of Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody and Rocketman, about Elton John, has increased the market and interest for biopics on musicians and bands.
Stewart added that he thought the Freddie Mercury biopic Bohemian Rhapsody was “just brilliant” but admits that he had some misgivings about John’s film, Rocketman.
“The chronology wasn’t always right,” he complains. “When they showed Elton singing at the Troubadour, he was performing songs that were released 20 years later. And it was a bit too Mamma Mia! for me.”
