Freeman, an academy award winner, has had a long illustrious career. It all began with a starring role on ‘The Electric Company’ in the 1970’s. “I have always admired Lemmy” said Freeman. “I first met Lemmy in 1967 when we were both roadies for Jimi Hendrix. Good times, I remember one night in Berin, Lemmy spent the night with this old German Hooker. Afterwards, the next morning he came back with the moles on his face. It was the darndest thing. Basically We tried scrubbing them off, burning them off, bleaching them off, everything we could think of but those buggers would not budge.”

At this point Freeman has been studying bass and will do all the singing himself in the movie. “I have been banging groupies, chugging Jack Daniel’s and taking lots of speed, cocaine and LSD to prepare for the role” said Freeman. “Not many people know that I am a trained opera singer with a 4 octave range.”

Shawn Mendes will play the young Lemmy, and Ryan Seacrest will co star as Lemmy’s face warts. Rosie O’Donnell will play the German hooker. Motorhead band members, “Fast” Eddie Clarke and Phil “Philthy Animal” Taylor will be played by Nick and Joe Jonas.

The tagline for the movie is…”Motorhead! The loudest, dirtiest, smelliest Rock n Roll band in the world and Lemmy was the leader. Jack Daniels for breakfast, groupies for lunch and speed for dinner.” Theaters are warning pregnant women and those with heart conditions not to see the movie. They will hand out vomit bags to all movie goers.

  1. Yes. They are totally serious. Especially about the drug use. Proper preparation prevents piss poor productions.

  2. Ok Seriously… What film director or casting agent bumped their dam head…? Also, why on GOD’S green earth 🌎 would Morgan even accept such a role ? I respect both Morgan and Lemmy. However both men are 2 completely separate universes… That’s completely insane and NO ONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD EVER BY IT NO MORE THAN HAVING A BLACK GUY PLAY JAMES BOND 007. The pieces of those puzzles with never fit and it’s already doomed to fail MISERABLY!

    1. The sheer enjoyment I get from your comment. Even if your comment is meant to be a joke (hard to tell with Poe’s Law), you just made my day and I wish to thank you. Bless your gentle heart.

    2. Hey hey, I agree about the Lemmy thing! But, you can’t say that a black guy can’t play James Bond? Are you for real, it’s a story?

  3. Brilliant! In a similar vein of the most unlikely actors playing icons, there should be a biopic of Biggy Smalls, with Toby Jones as Biggy. Maybe Stephen Merchant as Tupac?
