Fans of Rock Legends Queen will tell you that there was no one quite like the late, great Freddie Mercury and the music of the band Queen that was brought to bigger and brighter life because of his influence and talent. So many of their songs have become timeless classics and now the bands story, or more importantly Freddie’s story will be told in a brand-new 20th Century Fox Film called “Bohemian Rhapsody”. A few days ago the first full trailer made its appearance and we are presenting that for you all along with premise casting and additional editorial notations. Let’s go.
Synopsis: Described as 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.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: Now that we’ve gotten a better glimpse at the film, I have to say that I am sold. I never got to see the real deal Queen in concert and despite many efforts haven’t managed to catch the tribute act “Almost Queen” who many friends rave about so I am planning to be on point for this one. That’s all I have to say about this matter. So let’s close this up and ask what did you think of the film? Let me know down below.
