Robbie Williams Movie Chimpanzee Portrayal Explained | 10 News First

UK pop star Robbie Williams has explained why he has embraced being portrayed as a chimpanzee in his biopic 'Better Man'. Speaking at the European premiere of the film, Williams said Australian director Michael Gracey came to him with the idea after a discussion. "Michael Gracey said, 'What's your spirit animal?' and me trying to find some self-worth for myself went, 'I am a lion'. And he went, 'Mm, you're not, though, are you?' And I went, 'Monkey?' and he went, 'Yeah, here's the idea'," Williams said. 'Better Man' premieres in Australia on December 26.
