There's no denying it's been a rocky road to bring this Queen biopic to life. However, the first teaser for Bohemian Rhapsody does not disappoint!
The film has been in the works since 2010. First Sacha Baron Cohen was taking up the role of Queen frontman, Freddie Mercury. That came to a halt due to creative differences with the surviving members of the band and Cohen left the project. Then along came Ben Whishaw, he didn't work out either. Finally, Rami Malek was cast, and Bryan Singer took the role of director.
Production hit another snag when Bryan Singer was later fired from the project and Dexter Fletcher took over directing. Despite all the hurdles Bohemian Rhapsody finally came together, and the finished product is beyond dazzling.
Rami Malek looks absolutely perfect as the iconic frontman as the teaser blasts through the band's early inception through to their 1985 Live Aid show that saw Mercury faced with a life-threatening illness leading the band in one of the greatest performances in rock and roll history.
Check out the teaser below.
The film looks absolutely superb. 2018 truly is the year of great movies!
Bohemian Rhapsody is set to be released this November.
