‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ Trailer Will Rock You

See what I did with that title? Get it? Queen, will rock you….

This whole thing looks amazing and that’s even without Sasha Baron Cohen playing the lead of Freddy Mercury. Oh what could have been. That was a match made in heaven. But in drops Rami Malek, Mr. Robot himself and I have to say, he’s doing a fantastic job.

I’m a big fan of Queen, well who isn’t? So when I heard they were making a feature length film based on Freddy Mercury I was quite intrigued. It kind of sat in production hell, but they ultimately found their Freddy and their director – Dexter Fletcher.

Movies about music or musical icons can be tough to pull off. You really need a rest performance to carry a movie such as this and I think we are going to get one. Rami will be the anchor of the film and a ton of weight will be placed on his shoulders. If people don’t buy into him and his portrayal of Freddy Mercury then the movie will not succeed. From what we see in the trailer I don’t think that will be the case, it seems he has totally bought into this role and immersed himself into the embodiment of Freddy himself.

Plain and simple if they do a great job incorporating Queens music into the film, and it translates well onto the big screen, I think this will be a home run. Check out the trailer below and see for yourself!

Check ya later.

  1. I was totally floored by that trailer. There are soo many iconic Mercury/Queen poses incorporated that I had to go and watch it at 0,25x speed on YT. It’s packed with QUEEN. As far as I can tell, the whole cast really seem to pull it off. Jeez, that Brian May actor absolutely NAILS it. I couldn’t believe at first that this wasn’t a young Brian May they somehow extracted from one of those old Do-Ro documentations. I have so many hopes for that film and it looks like the axing of Bryan Singer was the best thing that could have happened to it.

    1. The cast is really great! Excited they finally managed to make this thing come to life!
