Has Freddy Mercury Come Back?

"When you’re able to open your eyes and see a different person staring back at you in the mirror," Malek told Entertainment Weekly, reflecting on his first time as Mercury in hair and makeup, "it’s a very affirming moment."

The preview arrives on what would've been Mercury's 71st birthday today, and teases a biopic that Malek describes as non-traditional. "It won't just be the dark Freddie story, but that being said, that will also be honored," he said. "It's about collaboration. It's a celebration."

Bohemian Rhapsody is scheduled for release December 25, 2018.
