Robbie Williams is set to enter his first Oscars bid as he prepares to face off against Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande in the Best Original Song category for his Better Man biopic
As a lifelong fanatic of Robbie Williams, I must say this news has sent my heart aflutter! The man who’s serenaded me through countless life moments is now gearing up for a battle royale against none other than the queens of pop, Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande, at the 2025 Oscars. This isn’t just a fight for the Best Original Song; it’s a testament to the timeless power of music itself!
At the upcoming Oscars next year, Robbie Williams will be competing with Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande for the Best Original Song award.
50-year-old musician-composer has been developing his biographical movie, “Better Man,” since 2021, and it is set to debut at the Toronto Film Festival on Tuesday.
To add to the movie, where Robbie Williams portrays himself and Jonno Davies plays a younger version of him, Robbie composed an original tune.
The star plans to submit his song “Forbidden Road,” which he played during a post-film festival gathering, for possible inclusion in the 2025 Academy Award nominations.
Nevertheless, he’ll encounter tough rivalry as Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande are expected contenders too, having songs from their upcoming movies, Joker: Folie à Deux and Wicked, in the race.
According to a source who spoke to The Sun, Robbie is thrilled not only about showcasing his film to the global audience, but also about taking a shot at winning an Oscar.
Confidently, Paramount plans to share the song with the audience and advertise it using trailers and promotional materials. Of course, there’s no certainty, but given his excellent track record, it’s reasonable to expect success.
It’s likely that Rob will also be nominated at the Golden Globes, as the voters are international and well-informed about his significant impact on the global pop scene and his lasting success.
In the previous year, the shooting for the Take That-inspired biopic titled “Better Man” featured actors grooving on the streets of London while dressed in stylish blue suits.
In the photos from the movie set, the actors enthusiastically participated in a massive, lively dance sequence on Regent Street.
The attire bore a resemblance to the costumes the band donned during their performance at the 1994 Brit Awards, where they played a medley of Beatles songs live on stage.
Jonno, who is playing a young Robbie, sported a brown CGI suit for the shots.
Earlier information disclosed that the film is expected to present a ‘whimsical’ perspective on Robbie’s life, featuring him as a computer-generated monkey character in certain sequences.
As a die-hard devotee, let me tell you who’s taking on the roles in our beloved band Take That: Jake Simmance steps into the shoes of Gary Barlow, Liam Head becomes Mark Owen, Jesse Hyde channels Howard Donald, and Chase Vollenweider embodies Jason Orange. It’s like a dream come true!
In the subsequent part of the act, the performers switched their wardrobes, adorning themselves with an assortment of eccentric ensembles. These ranged from a striking yellow waistcoat to a set of black denim pants accessorized with a spiked belt.
In a fascinating cinematic journey that mirrors my real-life experiences, I step into the spotlight as myself in the film “Better Man.” This captivating tale chronicles my remarkable transformation, from a cherished heartthrob in a boy band to an arena powerhouse, showcasing the highs and lows of my meteoric rise to stardom.
In May 2022, production commenced for a high-budget biographical movie, marketed as a “musical fairy tale,” being developed by Australian director Michael Gracey in Melbourne. Gracey is known for helming the successful film, The Greatest Showman.
30-year-old British actor Jonno, famously recognized from the Amazon Prime show “Hunters,” is set to portray the character of Robbie in his youthful years.
Additionally, we have talented actors like Kate Mulvany from Australia (known for The Great Gatsby), Damon Herriman (famous for Mr InBetween), and the versatile Anthony Hayes, who is also a filmmaker, joining our cast.
In December 2021, it became known that the production of Better Man would start at Docklands Studios in Melbourne as early as 2022’s beginning.
The production is rumoured to have cost $100million.
Under the guidance and collaboration with Australian director Michael Gracey, this movie promises a deep exploration of the life events that molded the famous British performer, encompassing both his on-stage triumphs and off-stage encounters.
