13 Rami Malek Movies And Shows You’ve Missed And NEED To See

Rami Malek is a brilliant actor who can excel in a variety of different roles. However, most of us only know him from his amazing portrayal of Freddie Mercury in the fantastic Bohemian Rhapsody movie. This 37-year-old Oscar winner has actually played many unforgettable roles before this huge box office hit and they are definitely worth taking a look at!

So, if you’re looking to get your Rami Malek fix or just want to see what else he has achieved in his acting career, you definitely don’t want to miss these fantastic movies and TV shows.

Rami played the role of Finn in the 2014 Need for Speed movie. The film is based on the popular video game series and Rami’s role is a car mechanic. His mission is to restore an expensive car and pay the workshop’s huge debt. It’s a thrilling ride that you won’t want to miss! I had no idea that movies were now being made about VIDEO GAMES, I am definitely behind the times…

2.) Night at the Museum

Rami plays Ahkmenrah from Night at the Museum, which takes place in the American Museum of Natural History. The exhibits mysteriously come to life at night, including Rami who is the Pharoah Ahkmenrah. This is a great light-hearted film to see Rami in a different light! He does pull off the Pharoah look though, I wonder if that’s how he dresses up for Halloween?

3.) Mr. Robot

Rami plays the main role of Elliot Alderson in the iconic Mr. Robot TV show, this is where most people remember Rami Malek from. Elliot Alderson is a computer hacker whose main purpose is to destroy the banking system with cyber attacks. This brilliant show depicts Elliot as an intelligent computer hacker who suffers from relatable problems like anxiety and depression. Malek’s performance is astounding and this show cannot be missed.

Definitely worth a watch if you are a fan of black hoodies, Rami seems to wear one in every scene anyway…

4.) Buster’s Mal Heart

Rami plays Jonah/Buster in the indie 2017 film Buster’s Mal Heart. Rami is a strange bearded man who lives in the mountains and is known as Buster. However, his real name is revealed as Jonah, he is living two entirely opposite lives due to his psychological problems. Rami would definitly make a good Jesus, he is rocking that look in this movie.

Bustle

Rami Malek’s appearance on Gilmore Girls is probably one of the most surprising and I bet that you missed it! His first ever Hollywood role was in the 2004 11th episode in Season 4 of Gilmore Girls, called “In The Clamor and the Clangor.” It was a small role with only three lines but it was a huge breakthrough for Rami Malek, look at where he is now!

13.) BoJack Horseman

IndieWire

Another very random one for you guys here but Rami Malek was actually the voice actor for Flip McVicker in BoJack Horseman. BoJack Horseman is an American Netflix animated adult comedy show, following a humanoid horse who was once a famous actor, trying to regain his dignity. Yeah, we said it was random…Malek’s voice role of Flip McVicker is an eccentric and pretentious TV show creator.
