From Michael Gracey, director of The Greatest Showman, comes an electrifying and unconventional biopic about the tumultuous life of British pop icon Robbie Williams – uniquely depicted on-screen as a CGI chimpanzee.

This bold, surreal approach somehow works, capturing both Williams’ wit and vulnerability in a fantastical, yet deeply personal way. As narrated by the singer himself, the warts-and-all story spans Williams’ working-class roots to his time in Take That and his record-breaking solo career, while also confronting the pressures that fame and success can bring.

A captivating, inventive journey that defies the typical biopic formula, blending humour, heartache, inventive set pieces and unforgettable music to tell a remarkable story of fame, failure, and resilience. Let us entertain you!

Oscar nominee in 2025 for Best Visual Effects.
