This new documentary will talk about his life growing up in Stoke-on-Trent, his work as a Jimi Hendrix roadie and his short time in Hawkwind. In an interview, Olliver explains "Everything you've heard about Lemmy is probably true... not because he's embracing rock 'n' roll cliches, but because he was creating them. Marlboro Reds and Jack Daniel's for breakfast, speed for dinner - all true. But behind that steely-eyed facade of rock 'n' roll was also a compelling, complicated and lionhearted man who stayed the course and never gave up playing the music that made him happy. We've been carefully developing this biopic since 2013, making sure to stay true to Lemmy, Motorhead band members Phil Campbell and Mikkey Dee, and all the other folks that played important roles in Lemmy's life. This will be a film they will be proud of."
Singerman and Chirazi said in an interview "It is a story of immense cultural importance. If the last five years of his absence has taught us anything, it is that he is more unique than anyone could have ever known because no-one touches the quality and sheer freedom of the man. Greg is a deeply trusted part of our circle, and we are delighted to see this film coming to fruition."
Production on Lemmy is said to start in 2021, but it all comes down to when the movie industry reopens after the coronavirus outbreak.
