Robbie Williams Stars in Biopic Better Man

Robbie Williams stars in the upcoming biopic 'Better Man', which creatively depicts his life and career through the unconventional portrayal of himself as a CGI chimpanzee. The film chronicles his journey from childhood to fame with Take That and his struggles with addiction, aiming for an authentic narrative despite its unique presentation. Williams expressed excitement about the film, stating it has received positive early feedback, with audiences eager to watch it multiple times. He acknowledges the metaphor of feeling like a 'performing monkey' throughout his career, which resonates with him. While the film does not shy away from dark moments in his life, some critics question the effectiveness of the chimpanzee representation, suggesting it detracts from the emotional depth of his story. 'Better Man' is set for release in New Zealand on December 26, 2023.
