Gather around, Rami Malek stans. The first teaser trailer for the Queenbiopic Bohemian Rhapsody is here.

Malek, who plays fabulous lead singer Freddie Mercury, owns it. But while Mercury is an integral figure in the creation of Queen, the film will follow the entire band and how they ended up creating classic hits like "We Will Rock You," "Don't Stop Me Now," "Another One Bites the Dust," and "Under Pressure."

As the press release reads: "The film traces the meteoric rise of the band through their iconic songs and revolutionary sound, their near-implosion as Mercury's lifestyle spirals out of control, and their triumphant reunion on the eve of Live Aid, where Mercury, facing a life-threatening illness, leads the band in one of the greatest performances in the history of rock music."

While Malek has the look down, he was still working on Mercury's iconic voice as of last September.

"We’re going to use Freddie as much as possible and use myself as much as possible," explained Malek. But his and Mercury's voices won't be the only ones. Queen fans will also get a chance to get their vocals in the movie by uploading "their best rendition of 'Bohemian Rhapsody,'" to PutMeInBohemian.com.

The film, which also stars Lucy Boynton, Gwilym Lee, Ben Hardy, Joseph Mazzello, Aiden Gillen, Tom Hollander, and Mike Myers, arrives in theaters on Nov. 2. Watch the trailer above.
