Rami Malek is in final negotiations to play the villain role in Bond 25 movie, co-staring Daniel Craig. <\/p>\n
Bond 25 movie will be directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga. <\/p>\n
The Upper Egyptian -American star Rami Malek has made it to the Oscars and received Best Actor award after his brilliant portrayal of Queen’s main vocalist, the legendary Freddie Mercury, in “Bohemian Rhapsody” movie. <\/p>\n
\u201cI am the son of immigrants from Egypt, a first-generation American… and part of my story is being written right now. I could not be more grateful to each and every one of you, and everyone who believed in me for this moment. It\u2019s something I will treasure for the rest of my life.\u201d \u2013 part of Rami Malek’s 2019 Oscars acceptance speech for “Best Actor,” Bohemian Rhapsody. <\/p>\n
Malek has won all the awards preceding the 91st Academy Awards: The Golden Globes, the BAFTAs and SAG. <\/p>\n
Malek is an Egyptian-American actor, who was born in Los Angeles on May 12, 1981, to Egyptian immigrant parents who are Saeed Malek and Nelly Abdel Malek. <\/p>\n
Originally from Minya’s Samalut, Malek’s parents immigrated to the US in the 1970s. Malek’s journey from Upper Egypt to the Golden Globes was both difficult and interesting. <\/p>\n
The 37-year-old actor grabbed the award after a tough competition with acclaimed stars, Bradley Cooper for “A Star is Born”, Willem Dafoe for “At Eternity’s Gate”, John David Washington for “BlacKkKlansman” and Lucas Hedges for “Boy Erased”.<\/p>\n
Malek has been nominated before for a Golden Globe for his performance in the TV series “Mr. Robot”. Malek was the first non-white actor to take home the Emmy for Best Actor in a Drama Series in over 18 years in 2016 for his role in “Mr. Robot”. <\/p>\n
Malek’s win, along with the film’s win of Best Motion Picture Drama, were the most tweeted-about incidents at the Golden Globe. <\/p>\n
\u201cThank you to Freddie Mercury for giving me the joy of a lifetime. I love you, you beautiful man. This is for and because of you, gorgeous,\u201d Malek said dedicating his great win to the legendary singer. <\/p>\n
Malek elaborated that he drew personal connections with Mercury after depicting him. \u201cI tried to find the humanity in him,\u201d he said during a press room speech after the film’s win. <\/p>\n
\u201cI related to him being an immigrant struggling to discover his identity,” he added. “I tried to take everything he was struggling with, his complication, his chaos, his turmoil and this beauty inside of him. He lifted me up to be everything I could be in this film.\u201d <\/p>\n
“Bohemian Rhapsody” was actually what the Egyptian-American actor needed to shift from acclaimed actor to established movie star. <\/p>\n
“Bohemian Rhapsody” also winning Best Drama, further stabilised Malek’s outstanding performance in the movie that succeeded both critically and commercially, yielding over $700 million and becoming the highest grossing biopic of all time. <\/p>\n
Being provided the golden chance to perform the role of the iconic Mercury, Malek was aware of the huge responsibility and took it very seriously. <\/p>\n
“I was very cognizant of the work it was going to take to get anywhere close to becoming Freddy Mercury. I flew myself to London and put myself up and just got hammering away,” Malek explained to E News. <\/p>\n
“Piano lessons and worked with a movement coach and singing lessons\u2014everything I could possibly do. And then I watched copious amounts of Freddie Mercury performances,” he reiterated. <\/p>\n
Malek is now dating his “Bohemian Rhapsody” co-star Lucy Boynton, 24, who plays Mary Austin, Mercury’s first fianc\u00e9e. <\/p>\n
Malek and Bonyton had never talked about their relationship in public until recently when Malek confirmed their relation at the Palm Springs International Film Festival where he accepted the Breakthrough Performance Award. <\/p>\n
“Thank you, Lucy Boynton,” Malek said to Billboard. “You have been my ally, my confidant, my love. Thank you so much,” he added. <\/p>\n
Malek who used to sell falafel and deliver pizza to support himself financially at the beginning of his career is now enjoying his newfound fame and saying goodbye forever to anonymity, giving a true example that it is never impossible. <\/p>\n
