After giving Bryan Singer the boot and hiring Dexter Fletcher to helm the upcoming Freddie Mercury biopic, a teaser trailer for BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY has arrived ahead of tomorrow's full trailer premiere. In true teaser fashion, the footage gives us but a glimpse of the glitz, glam, and flamboyant stylings of one of the most legendary rock bands to ever walk the planet.
Here's another teaser trailer for the film that offers a better look at Malek's Freddie Mercury:
Bohemian Rhapsody is a foot-stomping celebration of Queen, their music and their extraordinary lead singer Freddie Mercury, who defied stereotypes and shattered convention to become one of the most beloved entertainers on the planet. The film traces the meteoric rise of the band through their iconic songs and revolutionary sound, their near-implosion as Mercury's lifestyle spirals out of control, and their triumphant reunion on the eve of Live Aid, where Mercury, facing a life-threatening illness, leads the band in one of the greatest performances in the history of rock music. In the process, cementing the legacy of a band that were always more like a family, and who continue to inspire outsiders, dreamers and music lovers to this day.
I don't know about you, but I'm excited for this one. I can feel my heart pounding with each kick of the introductory notes to Queen's "We Will Rock You," and can barely contain my excitement for when "Killer Queen", "Fat Bottomed Girls", or "Don't Stop Me Now," are inevitably performed in the film. For my money, Mercury has one of the most powerful voices ever recorded, and I'm simply dying to witness the manner with which MR. ROBOT's Rami Malek portrays him onscreen.
Be sure to check back with us tomorrow, when the full trailer for BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY takes center stage here on JoBlo.com.
BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY is scheduled to hit theaters on November 2nd.
