Rami "Mr. Robot" Malek as Freddie Mercury Is So Spot On I'm Not Convinced It's Not Actually Freddie Mercury

Almost indistinguishable.  To the point I’m not convinced Freddie Mercury hasn’t been posted up in Cuba with 2Pac and Steve Jobs having some peace and quiet away from the spotlight before making his big return when cash started to run low.  Rami “Mr. Robot” Malek the spitting, and I mean spitting image of the Queen frontman.  Kind of makes you wonder what Bryan Singer would have done if Malek turned him down?   He already lost out on Sasha Baron Cohen.  There were rumors the producers wanted Ben Whishaw:

Yeah, that’s a no for me dog.  This was Malek or bust.

I mean, you try to tell them apart.

fsociety and Bohemian Rhapsody.  Mr. Robot was born for this shit.

PS,

Honestly I can’t see anything on the internet anymore without falling down a Youtube rabbit hole.  Almost every single thing that I see I end up watching videos about it for 4 hours later that night.  So let’s just say if you have any questions about Queen history I’m your guy for the next 48-72 hours.
