How long is the theatrical cut?

The standard theatrical cut runs 134 minutes. Salty Popcorn, reporting the BBFC decision of 26 Sept 2018, gives the same 134-minute length for the UK theatrical classification.

Listed runtimes shift by territory and format. Hype/MovieDash, via 20th Century Fox Malaysia, notes a 131-minute Malaysian cinema cut and 129-135 minute video listings.

Is there a post-credits scene?

No. ScreenRant reports that after the Live Aid performance and explanatory text cards, the story is complete.

Staying still has a payoff for fans. The credits play Queen music, ending with Don't Stop Me Now over real-band footage followed by The Show Must Go On over the roll.

What do the age ratings mean?

In the UK, the BBFC classified the film 12A for moderate sex references, drug references and infrequent strong language. That rating signals material suited to viewers 12 and older, with younger viewers admitted with an adult.

In the US, the film is PG-13 for thematic elements, suggestive material, drug content and language. Common Sense Media, updated in 2025, frames that guidance around families with younger teens.

Which version should you watch?

Fox offered a sing-along version with on-screen lyrics, according to Loudersound in its January 2019 report. It played in about 750 North American theatres that month.

For home viewing, Sound & Vision reported Digital/Movies Anywhere on 22 Jan 2019 and DVD, Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray in Feb.-Mar. 2019 in its release notice. The discs added bonus Live Aid and Crazy Little Thing Called Love material.

  • Standard theatrical: 134-minute story cut
  • Sing-along theatrical: same story with lyrics for Bohemian Rhapsody, We Will Rock You and Radio Ga Ga
