Usher wants to play the leading role in a biopic of legendary singer Marvin Gaye.

The Love in This Club hitmaker has already played Gaye once before during a guest-appearance on U.S. television show American Dreams.

And now he is desperate to portray Gaye in a movie version of his life story.

He says, “I want to be the person who tells the story of Marvin Gaye because I understand the conflict he had as a man.”

Unfortunately for the singer, a film about Marvin Gaye’s life is already in production – with former Law & Order star Jesse L. Martin in the lead role.
