Here's another look at "Mr. Robot" star Rami Malek as legendary British rock singer Freddie Mercury in a new sneak peek clip from the upcoming Queen biopic, "Bohemian Rhapsody."

The minute-long clip shows Freddie and his band mates as they try to record the now-famous operatic passage in their top-charting 1975 song "Bohemian Rhapsody," in which drummer Roger Taylor (portrayed here by X-Men: Apocalypse's Ben Hardy) was pushed into singing the words "Gallileo ... Figaro" in the highest note possible. The recording session for Bohemian Rhapsody, reportedly, took three weeks to complete.

The upcoming musical film, which is produced and authorized by Queen songwriter/guitarist Brian May and Queen drummer Roger Taylor, dramatizes the rise of the famed British rock band, charting Freddie's journey to rock stardom as he transforms himself into one of the greatest frontmen in rock history.

Directed by Bryan Singer, and also starring Gwilym Lee and Joseph Mazzello with Lucy Boynton, Aiden Gillen, and Mike Myers, "Bohemian Rhapsody" is hitting theaters everywhere on November 2nd.

synopsis:
Bohemian Rhapsody is a foot-stomping celebration of Queen, their music and their extraordinary lead singer Freddie Mercury, who 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, their near-implosion as Mercury's lifestyle spirals out of control, and their triumphant reunion on the eve of Live Aid, where Mercury, facing a life-threatening illness, leads the band in one of the greatest performances in the history of rock music. In the process, cementing the legacy of a band that were always more like a family, and who continue to inspire outsiders, dreamers and music lovers to this day.
