See Rami Malek Performing as Freddie Mercury in New Bohemian Rhapsody Photo
The Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody is slated to come out in December 2018. Well ahead of the release, director Bryan Singer has said he “couldn’t help [himself]” and shared a new photo of Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury. Check it out below. Last month, the first official glimpse of Malek as Mercury arrived. Malek [called](http://ew.com/movies/2017/09/05/rami-malek-freddie-mercury-bohemian-rhapsody/) it “a very affirming moment” when he first glimpsed himself in hair and makeup. Filling out Malek’s band in the film are Gwilym Lee as guitarist Brian May, Ben Hardy as drummer Roger Taylor, and Joe Mazzello as bassist John Deacon.
Couldn't help myself and had to post this iPhone pic
