Bohemian Rhapsody’s Biggest Scene Was Shot In One Take
The climactic moment of ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ is the band’s legendary 1985 performance at Live Aid. And amazingly enough, it was all shot in one take.
Actor Rami Malek, who plays Freddie Mercury, says they spent several days shooting the concert song-by-song, but the performance just didn’t quite have the right energy.
Malek says he asked producers for an extra day of filming to shoot the entire 22-minute scene in one take – and “it was the best take we ever did”.
