Robbie Williams Joins Jonno Davies at TIFF Premiere of New Biopic 'Better Man,' First Look Photo Revealed

Robbie Williams and Jonno Davies pose together at the premiere of their new movie Better Man during the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival held at Roy Thomson Hall on Monday (September 9) in Toronto, Ontario.

The 50-year-old entertainer plays himself in the upcoming musical biopic about his life, while the 32-year-old actor portrays a younger Robbie.

Following the screening, Robbie took to the stage at a reception for the film for a surprise performance of his new original song, “Forbidden Road,” which was written just for the film.

Also in attendance at the premiere were writer, director and producer Michael Gracey, as well as Rebel Wilson and fiancée Ramona Agruma.

After the premiere, a first look photo from Better Man was released. Check it out in the gallery!

Here’s a synopsis: Better Man is based on the true story of the meteoric rise, dramatic fall, and remarkable resurgence of British pop superstar Robbie Williams, one of the greatest entertainers of all time. Under the visionary direction of Michael Gracey, the film is uniquely told from Williams’ perspective, capturing his signature wit and indomitable spirit. It follows Robbie’s journey from childhood, to being the youngest member of chart-topping boyband Take That, through to his unparalleled achievements as a record-breaking solo artist – all the while confronting the challenges that stratospheric fame and success can bring.

Better Man is set to debut in select theaters on Christmas day, December 25, with a wide release on January 17, 2025.

'The Greatest Showman' Director to Turn Robbie Williams' Life Into a Biopic!

The Greatest Showman director Michael Gracey has announced that his next movie will be Better Man, a biopic about singer Robbie Williams.

Deadline reports that the film will follow the singer’s “ascent, exploring the experiences that made him who he is, and the demons he battled both on and off the stage as he became a huge star on the back of hits like ‘Angels.’”

Michael will be directing and producing the film. He also co-wrote the script with first-time screenwriters Oliver Cole and Simon Gleeson.

In an interview with Deadline, Michael revealed that Robbie‘s music will be included in the film, but he wouldn’t confirm if the singer himself will appear in it.

“As for how we represent Robbie in the film, that bit is top secret,” Michael said. “I want to do this in a really original way. I remember going to the cinema as a kid and there were films that blew me away and made me say as I sat there in the cinema, ‘I’ve never seen this before.’ I just want the audience to have that feeling. It’s so important when they watch this story, and look at the screen, that they literally think, I’ve never seen this before. All I can say is the approach is top secret, but the goal is to generate that feeling I just described. It’s this fantastical story, and I want to represent it in its harsh reality all the way to these moments of pure fantasy.”

Michael also revealed that Robbie‘s music will be re-recorded for the movie and it will seemingly be performed by whoever is playing the role.

“All Robbie’s songs will be re-sung, for the emotion of the moment,” he said. “If in his life he’s in the depths of despair, he’s not going to sing a song as cabaret flamboyant showmanship; it’s going to be broken, acapella, stripped down, because that’s where he is emotionally. In moments of pure joy, you’ll get songs sung in this whirlwind of hysteria. So essentially every song in the film, Robbie will sing, but it will be performed for the emotion of that moment, and that scene.”

The producers will be looking for a studio to buy the movie at the upcoming European Film Market event.
