Prepare to Get Rocked by Queen with the New 'Bohemian Rhapsody' Trailer

At long last, the first full trailer for Bohemian Rhapsody has officially dropped. Featuring extensive footage of the humble and creative beginnings of the band Queen, the trailer is nothing but pure nostalgic greatness. Rami Malek stars as Freddie Mercury, the band’s frontman, as the movie follows how Queen became one of the greatest bands of all time.

The first Bohemian Rhapsody teaser drew harsh criticism on social media for failing to address Mercury’s sexuality and his AIDS diagnosis. The official trailer, however, dives straight into everything that the band had to go through, even showing scenes of Mercury getting with a man and mentioning how AIDS affected the rock singer.

But one thing that’s given more light is how each Queen smash hit was made. Scenes of the band recording “We Will Rock You” and “Bohemian Rhapsody” gave us chills and a massive rush of nostalgia. The cast also did an impressive portrayal of the entire band, with Malek nailing Mercury’s mannerisms and likeness. Seriously, it’s like watching the group do their thing all over again.

Check out the official synopsis below:

Bohemian Rhapsody is a foot-stomping celebration of Queen, their music, and their extraordinary lead singer Freddie Mercury. Freddie 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. They reach unparalleled success, but in an unexpected turn Freddie, surrounded by darker influences, shuns Queen in pursuit of his solo career. Having suffered greatly without the collaboration of Queen, Freddie manages to reunite with his bandmates just in time for Live Aid. While bravely facing a recent AIDS diagnosis, Freddie leads the band in one of the greatest performances in the history of rock music. Queen cements a legacy that continues to inspire outsiders, dreamers and music lovers to this day.

Bohemian Rhapsody stars Rami Malek, Lucy Boynton, Gwilym Lee, Ben Hardy, Joseph Mazzello, Aidan Gillen, Tom Hollander, Allen Leech, and Mike Myers. The film will hit theaters November 2, 2018.
