How Queen's Roger Taylor Really Feels About Sacha Baron Cohen Almost Playing Freddie Mercury.
How Queen's Roger Taylor Really Feels About Sacha Baron Cohen Almost Playing Freddie Mercury.
When recently asked by Classic Rock Magazine about the one-time possibility of Sacha Baron Cohen playing Freddie Mercury, Queen drummer Roger Taylor didn't mince any words.
"I think he would have been utter sh*t," Taylor said (via Metro ).
The musician pointed out that the "Borat" actor doesn't quite meet the physical requirements to fill the shoes of the legendary Queen singer.
According to CelebHeights, Sacha Baron Cohen stands at 6 feet 3 inches tall.
Contrastingly, CelebHeights reports that Freddie Mercury stood at 5 feet 9 inches tall, only two inches taller than Rami Malek stands now (via CelebHeights ), but a sizable distance from that of Baron Cohen.

However, Taylor's problems with Baron Cohen didn't really begin or end at height.
He also described Cohen as "pushy" and said, "I watched his last five films and came to the conclusion he's not a very good actor." While Taylor is clearly thankful that Baron Cohen never got the chance to play his former colleague, Taylor admitted that he "could be wrong" and noted that he appreciates Baron Cohen's comedic work.
