First image of Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury in 'Bohemian Rhapsody'

He actually looks quite good. Hopefully the movie turns out good as well.

What do you guys think?

Tough angle, but looks pretty good from here

Looks pretty spot-on. Good luck to the team.

fantastic

My first thought is that this image is a result of massive post production.

Looks heavily modified i hope this doesn't become the poster.


Much worse....is possible. ....like the Odeon artwork

Trainspotty reaction: Kind of odd to see the Live Aid outfit under stage lights, since they formed in the afternoon.

*performed

^ good point.....maybe that's the reason for all the color correction/alteration.

Like old films using tint post to suggest a night scene when shot in daylight

The first thing I noticed is that he doesn't have hair on his chest and his shirt is a little different. Compare the two of them:[url]http://s1.firstpost.in/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Untitled-design-21.jpg[/url]

I hope Rami keeps his eyes closed most part of the film :-)

No, really, I wish him the best of lucks. Liked him very much in Mr. Robot season 1, but can´t see him as Freddie yet.
It´s a shame Sasha Baron Cohen jumped the boat. He was the perfect choice and would have loved a more dramatic and private aproach to Freddie´s persona, like we saw in the Johnny Cash or Ray Charles biopics, for instance.
Dont know what to expect now: looks like this is not a Freddie biopic anymore, but a portrait of the band and a celebration of their music.

Sasha Baron Cohen is far too tall to play Freddie anyway.He'd be ideal to play Frank Zappa though.

He looks too much like a gay pretty boy.

Was it too hard for them to get the right shade of jeans for the Live Aid outfit?
