“Bohemian Rhapsody” rocked the box office on its debut weekend, making $140 million worldwide. The biopic of Freddie Mercury and Queen had mixed reviews, but fans went anyway, helping Fox recoup its $52 million investment in a film plagued by production controversies (the director was fired).
Here are five previous film biopics about real bands or performers:
The Doors—Val Kilmer was a convincing Jim Morrison in this Oliver Stone biopic from 1991.
Sid and Nancy—From 1986, it tells the story of Sex Pistols founder Sid Vicious, played by future Oscar winner Gary Oldman.
