John Fogerty teases biopic on the way - and he wants this Hollywood star to play him

John Fogerty has teased a biopic and signaled his preferred lead actor. The Creedence Clearwater Revival frontman, now 81, told Us Weekly that Timothee Chalamet would be ideal to portray him after his acclaimed Bob Dylan performance in A Complete Unknown. Fogerty described the project as a thrill and noted that the film would explore his personal life and long career, including his marriage to Julie Lebiedzinski, whom he wed in 1991. The career milestones and his recognition with the Johnny Mercer Award from the Songwriters Hall of Fame frame the narrative. He spoke about the honor during the ceremony, emphasizing the joy of music and the lasting impact of his work.
