Sophie Turner Is All in for Playing Boy George in a Future Biopic, Should It Make Sense

In the wake of feature-length biography films about rockstars of the millennium (and those with fluid sexualities, at that), "My Dinner With Hervé" director Sacha Gervasi is rumored to be working on a Boy George biopic. The 58-year-old English lead of pop band Culture Club and glam fashion designer has led quite the life, landing him among the ranks of Freddie Mercury and Elton John -- making him the obvious next pick for a biographical musical drama. And who has George tapped to play him in such a film? Sophie Turner, fresh off "Game of Thrones" and "Dark Phoenix" fame and newly wed to a Jonas Brother. It would be an interesting dynamic for a woman to take the role, but isn't that what George's life is all about, anyway? Turner's certainly not opposed.
