Take your protein pills and put your helmet on: there’s a David Bowie biopic in the works.

Earlier this year Bowie released his first new single in a decade Where Are We Now? A pensive look at the time in the late 1970s when he shared a Berlin apartment with Iggy Pop, it met all of our hopeful expectations and more. And to add even more fuel to our Ziggy Stardust-obsessed fires, it has just recently been announced that a biopic about the prolific creative period the pair spent there is under way. We’re a little bit excited, to say the very least.

In honor of the great man’s return to the silver screen, we’ve composed a list of his greatest cinematic moments. Because as it turns out, beyond his obvious musical brilliance: David Bowie is also a man of many on-screen talents.
