Noel Gallagher reportedly wants Michael Fassbender to play the lead in a film about Oasis.

A studio has approached Noel about making a movie about the hugely successful band and it is believed that Noel would like the Irish actor to star in it.

However he has not revealed if Michael would play Noel or his brother Liam.

Noel has said that nothing has been confirmed but he would definitely consider getting involved in an Oasis film.
 
^ I hope he doesn't do it. Who wants to watch a frigging film about Oasis?

Almost everybody. Oasis was the biggest and most successful British band from the 90s in the UK/world to date, the Gallagher bros and their douchiness, controversy and many ups and downs made the band just like it ended it. If there is a film to be made and whoever gets the part, people will go to watch the movie, trust. :smile1:
 
I would've preferred a documentary of the real brothers instead actors that look nothing like them playing dress up.

LOL at that new Magneto picture. WTF is going on with his legs :roflmfao:

I agree. Oasis were huge here in the UK when they came out. I remember the whole thing with Blur and Sporty Spice challenging the Gallagher brothers to a fight at the Brits. I think if you are not British you wouldn't know how big they were. And what an impact they made on British culture. So yeah an Oasis film would be greatly anticipated here in the UK.

bwanch02 as for dress up - isn't that a huge part of what actors do?

I am not British, but I do know how popular they were/are. I blame them for the whole Brit Pop phase that ruined the music scene for years. I can't stand the Gallagher Bros. I think it's way too early for a film about this band, so I hope Michael won't bother.

Speaking of Michael. I saw him and his mum at the BAFTAs backstage. He's losing his looks. Don't know if it's the horrible hair or the beard. Leonardo DiCaprio on the other hand, looked mighty fine. :p

Not only in the UK but also Europe and the world in general. They had a huge impact on the music scene (if positive or negative is everyone's own point of view). They created a new genre and I believe this band's movie as well as a Kurt Cobain biopic are the most anticipated movies of modern musicians nowadays (as they did about Ray, Johnny Cash and Co.).

I don't think Michael would fit the part. They should at least try for a slight resemblance.

Michael did look really tired in those BAFTA pics. He needs to take a break or something. Leo has never done it for me. Maybe I need to see him person.

Agreed.

Hopefully he does not accept the part if it became a possibility. He looks nothing like either of them.
Trying to think of him doing a Manchuian accent is difficult as well.

Kurt Cobain Biopic - Now that I would love to see. :)

Always thought Leo looked like a Man Child, too boyish in looks for me on the whole. But I also noticed he looked better than I remember of late. I reckon he is growing into this looks finally, meaning that he is young looking 40 now, and looks more masculine and less pubescent as he grows older.
He looks a lot like his mum who has aged fairly well.

Me too!
IMO there are only two people in the world who could play him and I hate to admit to one of them because I can't stand him. :shrugs:
