The band members (top) from left to right: Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor, John Deacon.Īs for some other characters, Gwilym Lee plays the role as guitarist Brian May.

In my opinion, the filmmakers paid attention to every last detail, making the film seem as if you were watching the band’s actual performance. The film gives a very detailed history of Freddie’s life from the time he joined the band, to his epic performance at Wembley, including everything in between. Mercury is one of the most attention-grabbing and entertaining artists of all time, due to his wild actions on stage and strange selection of clothing.
