The very first image of Johnny Flynn (Beast) in the upcoming Stardust has been revealed. British actor/musician Johnny Flynn appears as the young David Bowie, with Jena Malone starring as Bowie’s wife Angie and Marc Maron as Bowie’s record company publicist, Ron Oberman.
Official synopsis: Meet David before Bowie. One of the greatest icons in music history; But who was the young man behind the many faces? In 1971, a 24-year-old David Bowie (Johnny Flynn) embarks on his first road trip to America with struggling publicist Ron Oberman (Marc Maron), only to be met with a world not yet ready for him.
STARDUST offers a glimpse behind the curtain of the moments that inspired the creation of Bowie’s first and most memorable alter ego Ziggy Stardust, capturing the turning point that cemented his career as one of the world’s greatest cultural icons.
Gabriel Range is directing the film from a script written by Christopher Bell (Netflix’s The Last Czars).
Stardust will be released in cinemas soon. Check out the new image above.
