The iconic frontman from Motorhead is getting a biopic, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The film will follow Ian “Lemmy” Kilmister’s early life in England and his early experiences as a roadie for Jimi Hendrix, among other topics.

“Lemmy” is set to be directed by Greg Olliver, who spent years following Motorhead and the late frontman for another documentary.

Production could start in early 2021, according to the report.

Kilmister died on Dec. 28, 2015, at age 70.
