You can easily override the __init__ method to change the queryset on
form instantiation, by passing in an extra `user` keyword arg:
def MyForm(forms.Form):
field =
forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=MyModel.objects.none())
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
user = kwargs.pop('user', None)
super(MyForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.fields['field'].queryset =
MyModel.objects.filter(user=user)
