The Bohemian Rhapsody transformation by Rami Malek to Freddie Mercury is simply unforgettable. With the prosthetic teeth and those flamboyant stage outfits that really made the rock legend live again, Malek not only looked like the Queen frontman but also captured the very energy of the stage performer's vulnerability and tenacious drive. His performance, coupled with rigorous research about the life and problems of Mercury, earned him his Academy Award for Best Actor, becoming one of the etched names in cinematic history.
