He is a marvel.
Nothing was going to compromise us.
Were giving him the love, celebration and adulation he deserves.
Singer previously addressed his departurefrom the film in a statement: Bohemian Rhapsodyis a passion project of mine.
This was a very taxing experience, which ultimately took a serious toll on my own health.
Unfortunately, the studio was unwilling to accommodate me and terminated my services.
This was not my decision and it was beyond my control.
Thank you #HollywoodForeignPress.
