If you’re looking for an antidote to all the by-the-numbers musician biopics that have filled our screens over the past few years, Pharrell Williams might be about to provide it. Not only has he agreed to play himself in his film, but he’s also choosing to tell his story through the medium of… Lego.
Of course, movies inspired by the brick-based toy aren’t exactly new, either, but having watched the trailer, we sense that Williams’ decision to do things a little differently might be about to pay off. Titled Piece by Piece, the film seems to share some of the offbeat humour of the other Lego movies, and stepping into the animated sphere frees the storytellers up to take a few liberties.
