Hmm. Hopefully by the time the final product is ready, it will look much better. It's hard to judge a movie just through seeing an amateur video of the actors acting. So much more goes into a movie.

Honestly, In this video Rami looks silly to me....not convincing at all.
On the other hand, guy playing John is spot on, same as guys playing Brian and Roger.

As a professional actor, how do you not get Freddie's mannerisms is beyond me. They are so distinct .

...who plays Roger is more like Rick Parfitt...

Rami Malek looks simply too weird as Freddie! The perfect comment made by somebody under the Sun article: looks more like the late Bugs Bunny

"The late Bugs Bunny" lol. The guy looks hopeless.

Brian and John - spot on, but Freddie and Roger - not so... It looks like the biopic is really going to tank now, which will be such an anticlimax. After all these years and A-list scriptwriters and directors getting rejected, because Brian didn't approve... Brian will realize what a mistake he made when the film goes quickly to DVD distribution and Poundland eventually. Next to an obscure Adam Sandler comedy and "Saw, part 9".

"It looks like the biopic is really going to tank now"....

This statement based on 30 secs of unedited raw footage, from a single phone camera filmed across a field. I despair.

Disappointing that John Blunt isn't playing Freddie.

johnny depp would have made a better fred, he can play guitar too

john blunt was very good in that channel 5 docu drama he would have been great too, that rami guy looks odd

Looney tunes ??

Agreed .. Brian spot on... though his lenght compared to Freddie is pretty much the same .Maybe a pair of clogs wil help.

John spot on...


Roger looks more like Rick Parfitt or Phil Collen from the '80 to me.

and Freddie... Won't go there...

They wanted someone younger than John Blunt also that wig on Roger has to go... its awful

Young Brian looks really really good.

I also think that John Blunt is better for playing Freddie.
