Stardust will chronicle the young David Bowie's first visit to the US in 1971 - a trip that inspired the invention of his iconic alter ego Ziggy Stardust. Oberman and Bowie head across the country in Ron’s uncool, un-rock’n’roll station wagon, with Bowie playing disastrous, low-key gigs and Ron becoming a Spinal Tap-type PR goof who is mortified at the poor turnout. A new trailer has been unveiled for the upcoming music movie Stardust, in which Johnny Flynn portrays David Bowie in the months surrounding the birth of his Ziggy Stardust persona. With Johnny Flynn, Marc Maron, Jena Malone, Derek Moran. The movie shows this, but where in reality the tour saw Bowie fly to major cities, meeting with Oberman a few times and doing interviews, the movie escalates this to a huge comedy-odd-couple road trip. A patient’s unexpected death during a study has given us the first recording of a dying human brain.
But, all too often, this Bowie looks as if he is presenting TV’s Bake Off.īowie arrived at Washington DC’s Dulles airport where an immigration official called him a “fag”, and where Mercury Records publicity man Ron Oberman (played here by comic Marc Maron) arrived to meet him, having got a lift to the airport from his mum and dad, and took the bemused Bowie back for a home-cooked family meal, like a 13-year-old foreign exchange student. Depicted in the scene is David Bowie (played by Johnny Flynn) in a discussion with his publicist Ron Oberman (played by Marc Maron), as they plan on marketing Bowie and his repertoire in the USA. Flynn carries off Bowie’s clothes and delicate mannerisms plausibly enough and, impressively, he does his own singing. A still from the new David Bowie biopic, Stardust - Film Constellation / Youtube David Bowie’s upcoming biopic, titled Stardust, has just released its first teaser trailer. T he very talented actor and musician Johnny Flynn here makes a perfectly game attempt to impersonate the young David Bowie in this ironised and fictionalised account of Bowie’s 1971 US publicity tour which – partly – inspired his Ziggy Stardust persona. Stardust is far more than a simple love story or fairy tale, it's irreverent and oozing with genre fun.
