Peter Ustinov played the role of Nero in the film "Quo Vadis" released in 1951.
Quo Vadis
That legend is just that, an urban legend about Nero. Nero never played the fiddle while Rome burned. For one the violin had not been invented in Nero's time. He did play his lyre and try to compose a poem about the burning of Troy during the fire, but this was out of a sense of frustration and helplessness, as he could do nothing to check the fire.
According to legend, Nero, although the more famous version states that he played the fiddle while Rome burned (although the fiddle hadn't been invented yet).
Tradition has is that Nero played a fiddle while Rome burned. This story is highly speculative. A fiddle is another name for a violin.
No Roman emperor played the fiddle while Rome burned. There is a misconception that Nero played the fiddle while Rome burned due to a misinterpretation of a line in a historical work dating from the Victorian era. The author said Nero was "fiddling around", meaning that he was doing trivial things to keep occupied while waiting for reports of the fire to come in. The uneducated jumped on this and the rumor began, despite the fact that the violin had not even been invented in Nero's time.
