Let Me Entertain You with a wild ride through the turbulent life of one of Britain’s most iconic performers. From a struggling childhood in Stoke-on-Trent, young Robert Williams dreams of becoming a great entertainer, inspired by the showmen his father admired.When a boyband audition in Manchester changes his life forever, Robert transforms into Robbie – the newest member of “Take That.” Overnight fame brings fortune and fans but also awakens inner demons that drive him toward a dangerous, self-destructive path. As tensions within the band rise, Robbie is eventually fired, forcing him to break free and embark on the solo career that will lead him into the new Millennium as one of pop’s biggest stars.
Coinciding with the originally planned release of Williams’ latest album “Britpop” (delayed to 2026), we will show you Michael Gracey’s next musical adventure after “The Greatest Showman” (2017). With his energy-charged direction and striking scene design, Gracey creates moments you won’t forget anytime soon and are pure cinematic Candy for music lovers. And you don’t have to be a Robbie Williams fan to Feel a few earworms sneaking into your head this evening. The biopic was also nominated for Best Visual Effects at the 2025 Academy Awards. (SP)
