The life of Robbie Williams, a child from modest origins who became a superstar, was adapted for the cinema by Hollywood. The singer talks about this project.
The life of Robbie Williams has all the makings of a blockbuster scenario. It’s the story of a brat from humble origins who became a global superstar. This extraordinary destiny was adapted by Hollywood. In the film, Robbie Williams is played by a monkey. But why such a choice? “It’s a somewhat eccentric artistic choice. In fact, it’s mainly to get people talking.”confides singer Robbie Williams.
At only 16 years old, the artist found success after responding to a classified ad and having passed a casting call to join the boy band Take That. The singer then began a solo career, filling stadiums and having a string of hits. “For me, it was above all the opportunity to have a life, to escape from a social and economic level,” explains the singer. Alcohol, drugs, excess… In his biopic, the Briton hides nothing of his flaws and his addictions.
