Robbie Williams: Famed UK singer and songwriter on his new film 'Better Man'

View descriptionShare

Famed UK singer-songwriter Robbie Williams stars in a grand retelling of his life and career - while taking on a new simian alter ego.

Better Man depicts the star's career, from his childhood, to his Take That days, to his solo works, exposing all the pitfalls of fame in between - with Williams being represented by a CGI chimp.

He says he felt compelled to do a biopic after a successful meeting with the film's director,  Michael Gracey of The Greatest Showman fame.

"The first time I saw it, I was like - this is mindblowing. It's absolutely incredible. But then I was like - hang on, I'm prone to ego and narcissism, maybe I just think it's the best thing I'd ever seen because it's about me."
