Filmmaker Dexter Fletcher has stepped in to take charge of the directorial duties of Bohemian Rhapsody, an upcoming biopic on the English band, Queen. He now replaces Bryan Singer after he was fired by 21st Century Fox for being unprofessional and for continuous absenteeism on the sets. However, Singer slammed the company for not being compassionate as he was taking care of his ailing parents.

Fletcher has to his credit films such as Eddie the Eagle and Wild Bill. It is now being reported Bohemian Rhapsody will resume production next week in London. 

Bohemian Rhapsody features Rami Malek in the lead role as Freddie Mercury, the frontman for Queen. Penned by Justin Haythe, the film is scheduled to release on December 25, 2018.
