Biopics about musical icons continue to reign supreme. Following on from 2018's Oscarwinning Bohemian Rhapsody (about Queen) and 2019's Rocketman (about Elton John) comes Robbie Williams' Better Man.
But this is no ordinary biopic, because the former Take That boyband member is portrayed by a CGI monkey! What's more, Robbie co-voices the characterand although it's crazy, it somehow all works.
Here, Robbie, tells New Idea about making the movie, which was mostly filmed in Melbourne and directed by Aussie Michael Gracey, the man behind The Greatest Showman...
Better Man takes a raw and honest look at your journey from childhood to global fame. What was it like to revisit those times in your life?
