How much studying did you have to do to play Freddie? You had all of my mannerisms down to a T 👏👍

Thanks. Yeah, I studied a lot. Research is a big part in an actor's life. This was certainly a job to dig into. The producers sent me boxes of VHS video tapes. All their videos and live concerts. I watched them and began to pick out a few signature moves I noticed Freddie was using over and over. None of the video was choreographed, it was literally made up and improvised. I had bits of it rehearsed using a broom as a mic stand in my house as a kid, but for the most part, we sort of winged it.

Do you by any chance still have those VHS tapes? There might be some interesting (and lost!) Queen material, you never know :)
