It can be difficult to capture the spirit of a rock star as well-known as Freddie Mercury, but Rami Malek does so with assurance in the film Bohemian Rhapsody. He completely inhabits the part of Mercury and is unrecognizable. Malek received accolades for his portrayal of the singer's turbulent life in the film, including an Oscar, Golden Globe, BAFTA, and Screen Actors Guild award.
