Brian May Is Interested in ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ Sequel

The 2018 “Bohemian Rhapsody” biopic was a massive hit, but could a sequel be in the works?

“There’s truth to the fact that we talk about it.” Queen’s Brian May said in a new interview, “We’d love it — we’d love to make a sequel. It’s finding the right script. It actually took us 12 years to find the right script for the first one, so I guess it’s no surprise that it’s not easy. There is a story there — an awful lot happened after the end of the ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ movie script, if you like, story — but whether it would make a film, I don’t know.

“And we don’t wanna put it out there or make it unless we’re sure that it’s gonna work and it’s gonna move people in the same way as the original film did. The short answer is we’d love to, and we haven’t found a way of doing it yet,” May continued.

“Bohemian Rhapsody” grossed over $1 billion dollars worldwide. It also won four Academy Awards, including Best Actor for Rami Malek’s performance as Freddie Mercury.
