Rami Malek takes point in a celebration of the iconic Freddy Mercury and Queen. Coming this November, Bohemian Rhapsody is 20th Century Fox’s newest brainchild, and it’s a boot-stomper. Whether you grew up on the music of Queen or discovered rock ‘n roll later in life, this is the story of an icon.
Queen catapulted into success in the ’70’s with the album Sheer Heart Attack. In 1974, they earned themselves a slice of immortality, at least in the music world. Bohemian Rhapsody became the boot-stomping rallying cry of a generation In the 1980’s. Freddy Mercury decided to take a go of it on his own, but his efforts largely flopped without the rest of his band, and in 1985, the group reunited and took over the rock scene again. This time Mercury was facing a life-threatening illness, but he still won the hearts of the world as one of the most popular entertainers and songwriters of his time.
Expect witty one-liners, an unfiltered look at Queen’s rise, and lots of music. Sing-along opportunities galore, especially if your heart beats faster when an anthem like the Rhapsody comes on. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
