“Bohemian Rhapsody” producer Graham King is teaming with Paramount Pictures and producer-financer Sister to bring music trio the Bee Gees to the big screen in a feature film!
Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb first began performing together in the late 1950s, but much of their popularity came after they wrote songs for ‘Saturday Night Fever’ that prolonged the popularity of disco and led to one of the top-selling albums ever. Paramount has purchased the life rights to the Gibb family estate on behalf of GK’s King and will be able to use their classic songs in the movie.
There is plenty of narrative in the Bee Gees’ history to bring their story to the big screen, in the realm of “Rocketman” – another Paramount Pictures production that Dexter Fletcher directed about Elton John.
