Amy Winehouse's father, Mitch Winehouse, has insisted that any biopic about the late singer's life should have a "fantasy element".

The 'Back to Black' star's father revealed that they were looking for "something a bit different" from 'Ray Charles' and 'Johnny Cash' biopic showing the same "rise, the fall, the rise, the unfortunate outcome" and so on, the Mirror reported.

He said that it wouldn't be a biopic in a biopic sense if they plan to do a movie, and added that he would like to hear Lady Gaga, who wanted to play Amy, do the "East End, Jewish, cockney" accent.
