The Mr Robot star Rami Malek looks stunning as Freddie Mercury.
The first picture of Mr Robot star Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury for a biopic about the iconic singer has been released – and he looks incredible.
The picture was released by Entertainment Weekly.
Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Rami said, “When you’re able to open your eyes and see a different person staring back at you in the mirror, it’s a very affirming moment”.
The film, directed by Bryan Singer about the life and times of Freddie Mercury and the iconic rock band Queen.
Bohemian Rhapsody will be out (out Dec. 25, 2018) and chronicles Queen from 1970, when Mercury teamed with Brian May and Roger Taylor, until the band’s performance at Live Aid in 1985. The film ends six years before the singer died of complications from AIDS.
Malek admitted that he’s currently recording, in London’s Abbey Road studios, some of Freddie’s epic songs – but the film makers are planning to use original recordings and re-recorded works.
