Oscar-winning actor Rami Malek has returned to the Cannes spotlight with "The Man I Love", the latest film from indie director Ira Sachs, premiering on the Croisette alongside co-stars Rebecca Hall, Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Tom Sturridge. The film sees Malek play a downtown New York performance artist during the late 1980s AIDS crisis – a role the actor compared to portraying Freddie Mercury in "Bohemian Rhapsody".
