Rami Malek’s $60 Million Spy-Thriller Flop Is Officially a Streaming Hit on Prime Video

Winning an Oscar can make you a star, but it doesn’t necessarily make you a bankable one. Rami Malek learned this after the success of Bohemian Rhapsody, the $900 million-plus blockbuster that won him the Academy Award for best actor and seemingly positioned the Mr. Robot star for a massive movie career. Since then, Malek’s track record has been mixed. He played a James Bond villain in the hugely successful No Time to Die and popped up as a nuclear physicist in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer, but his other projects haven’t always connected. He was part of the star-studded ensemble cast of the 1930s murder mystery Amsterdam, which earned just over $30 million worldwide despite its impressive roster. More recently, he starred opposite Russell Crowe in Nuremberg as U.S. Army psychiatrist Douglas Kelley, who is tasked with evaluating Nazi leaders after World War II. The historical drama did respectable business, but it wasn’t exactly a massive mainstream hit.
