I can only think down the line so far. But I’ve never been able to envision how you’re gonna get… I mean it’s one thing to try and find actors to represent the people in the band, but the other thing is all sort of theatrical depictions of life in the music scene and the everyday life of musicians and all that kinda stuff.”A post shared by Guns N' Roses (@gunsnroses)The guitarist went on to explain that the majority of band biopics tend to be “fabricated, over-exaggerated bullshit”.He added: “It’s very rare that you see a movie that actually feels genuine.
And so I don’t even want to be a part of all that. I just don’t think that it would be done a real justice.
I’ve seen a lot of bad ones, and they freak me out.”While Slash is not sold on working on a biopic, he has worked on a number of films recently – including Barbie and the 2023 horror film The Breach.Speaking to NME about creating the latter film’s score, Slash said: “I just wrote my bits and pieces and sent them in.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director While “Oppenheimer” has been touted as Christopher Nolan’s first biopic, that’s not necessarily true. It’s only the director’s first biopic to hit the big screen. Decades ago, Nolan wrote the screenplay for a biopic about aviator and business tycoon Howard Hughes, but the project never took flight because Martin Scorsese’s “The Aviator,” starring Leonardo DiCaprio as Hughes, beat him to it. Nolan told The Daily Beast in 2007 that his Hughes biopic was the best script he’d written, and he even lined up Jim Carrey to star as Hughes. Nolan said Hughes was the role that Carrey was “born to play.” Nolan’s Howard Hughes movie never materialized, but learning how to distill the life of an iconic American figure into a movie script would pay off years later when it came time to penning “Oppenheimer.”
