- Rami - Rami, yeah exactly.
Good pronunciation.
I speak Arabic pretty well.
Oh, do you?
Ahlan wah sahlan (Welcome...welcome)
Ahlan wah sahlan fik (Welcome to you)
Alright, shall we continue in Arabic?
Slama lakum brother.
A character actor, Rami Malek can become anyone you want him to be.
From Mr Robot to an Egyptian vampire.
And he's got an Emmy and a Golden Globe to back up his super power screen ability.
But now he's taking on his biggest role yet
a biopic.
So Rami, tell me what did you do when you got that phone call asking you to play Freddie Mercury
in probably what's the first film ever to depict the real story behind the guy that fronts
well, fronted
one of the world's biggest bands?
Like, no pressure dude.
I'm dealing with a man's life right?
And a legacy like no other.
A person people revere as not only a legend but a deity.
He's a rock god.
I just jumped all in.
Piano lessons. I took singing lessons.
I watched everything I could possibly watch on the man.
Every time I get a job I thank my lucky stars.
It's tough enough to get any role. Imagine this.
It was a riot.
