For some reason I thought he was against any biopics about him. Probably mistaking him with someone else.

Fred Astaire did not want it and had it written somewhere about no biopics about him. But there's like 2 film about him but idk if they are still going through with it.

Oh right, thank you. Yeah, there were news about that and then it just died down. Hopefully for good.

Gene Kelly is another one.

I wish that weren't so--I'd love a movie about him (or Fred, lbr)

The fact they're doing a Gene Kelly movie and not just using fucking Robbie Fairchild is stupid. At least Robbie has already played a role of Gene's and can dance!
