Gwilym Lee as Brian May in Bohemian Rhapsody (2018)
You know what gets me? The first few months after watching BoRhap, I could barely tell Brian May and Gwil apart. Now, I look at him here like: Oh my GOD, his face looks NOTHING like Brian’s, how could I have ever thought they looked the same! lol
Gwilym absolutely NAILED pretty much all of Brian’s facial expressions, posture, little quirks, how he would blink when he’s deep in thought, the way he sits and stands, the guitar playing etc. But I agree, he doesn’t look like Brian at all.
IMO this is the only moment in the movie where he remotely resembles Brian for a split second, and I think it’s because their side profiles look most alike. If you squint, you might just mistake him for the real thing!
This is the only photo I can think of where Brian looks a tiny bit like Gwilym.
I agree, just wanted to add that I loved these kinds of photos so much, though:
