Robbie Williams, the UK pop icon, gets the biopic treatment with 'Better Man,' a film that promises to go ape-shit on his wild life and times.

The film is directed by Michael Gracey, the mastermind behind the blockbuster 'The Greatest Showman,' ensuring a slick, big-budget production that'll make Williams' story shine.
Casting is still underway, but rumor has it that George Mackay, the rising star from '1917,' is the frontrunner to don the leather pants and crooked grin of the former Take That bad boy.
