Rami Malek Reminds Fans Again Why He’s An Oscar Winner

Rami Malek has once again proven how awesome of an actor he is. His role in Oppenheimer was not that huge and yet, he stole the show in one scene.

The star of Mr. Robot, the show that could easily be considered his breakout role, Rami Malek won an Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series. He went on to star as Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody and win an Academy Award for Best Actor, a Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Motion Picture Drama, the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role, and the BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role.

Of course, he’s one of the greatest actors of our time but he was far from being listed as the star of Oppenheimer. Directed by Christopher Nolan, Oppenheimer stars Cillian Murphy, Emily Blunt, and Matt Damon. Even Robert Downey Jr. and Scott Grimes get higher credits than Rami does. As far as Rami Malek is concerned, he’s far down the list of credits just above Army Captain, Burn Victim, and Laughing Woman.

Towards the end I said to myself;

“Wow Devon Bostick, the guy from Diary of a Wimpy Kid, got more lines than Josh Peck and Rami Malek combined.”

And then this scene came on. Malek only needed two minutes to drop the audience’s jaw all the way down to the floor. https://t.co/jZNufxkhLB

His fans noticed how little time he got in the movie but what he was able to do with it. The ending is explosive and that pun was absolutely intended.

With the lineup of talent who were so willing to work with Christopher Nolan, it’s a wonder the film’s budget was able to stretch that far. It’s possible all the stars were talked into taking lower pay to make it happen but it’s no denying with all the great reviews that Rami made every second of his part count and that’s what great actors do.
