James Marsden Expresses Interest in Playing Frank Sinatra in Biopic

The actor envisions a musical portrayal of Sinatra's life, similar to acclaimed biopics like 'Ray' and 'Elvis.'

  • James Marsden has shared his desire to star in a feature-length biopic about Frank Sinatra, highlighting the singer's compelling life story.
  • Marsden, known for his singing roles in films like 'Enchanted' and 'Hairspray,' hopes to use his own voice to embody Sinatra's iconic crooner style.
  • He cited inspiration from successful musical biopics such as 'Ray,' 'Walk the Line,' and 'Elvis,' which have spotlighted legendary musicians.
  • While Sinatra has been portrayed in various television films and miniseries, no major theatrical biopic has been produced about the singer to date.
  • Efforts to create a Sinatra biopic face challenges, as the singer's estate, led by his daughter Tina Sinatra, has yet to approve any official adaptation of his life.
