He's an interesting and excellent actor.

I watched Bohemian Rhapsody the other night as it was finally for
rent on Amazon. I was a little bored with the beginning of the film
but became more interested in it, as it went along. A bit of a tear
jerky near end.

Last night I watched the new 'Papillon' (free to prime members at
Amazon). Truly I was not interested in watching this movie due to
having watched the old 60-70's version (didn't think anyone could
do a great remake). I was truly surprised it was so good and I
hadn't realized Rami Said Malek was one in the same in both movies.
In other words, I had to google the actors because whilst watching
Papillon I thought 'hey that looks like the guy that played Freddie
Mercury'.
