The music biopic is a popular trend all over the world. People just cannot get enough of it. The movie Chevalier will bring moviegoers another one in 2023. However, it differs from ventures like “Ray,” “Walk the Line,” “Straight Outta Compton,” and “Weird”. Chevalier focuses on a legendary French classical composer. The composer was the closest thing to a rock star in the 18th century. While The Al Yankovic Story was more of a parody, it was in the same line.
We find the story taking place during the French Revolution. It features many historical figures. They are like Marie Antoinette. There is the opportunity to see the story of Joseph Bologne. He was also known as the “Black Mozart”. He will be performed by Kelvin Harrison Jr. The person is a rising star. Hence this makes it one to watch in the first half of 2023.

Trailer for Chevalier
The first trailer for the film Chevalier got a huge response. It gives a thrilling look at Joseph Bologne’s life, times, and music.
Bologne was one of the first musicians to incorporate electronic instruments into his sound. He is dubbed as “the first rock star” for his ability to cross over from the stage to the radio waves.
Additionally, the singer-songwriter has received praise for his efforts to bring together various communities through his music. By opening a school in Cape Verde that taught children how to read and write. He also worked for peace in Africa.
In the most recent trailer, Kelvin Harrison Jr. plays the title character. He delivers one of his best performances to date.
The young Bologne moves to another country. He does so to make a name for himself. We find this in the trailer’s opening scene. He moved to Paris, where the prestigious academy of music only accepted black students.
He initially caught everyone’s attention. But his true talent quickly spread throughout the campus. This got him a memorable event.
His performance with Mozart at one of the composer’s concerts earlier this week was one of the highlights of Bologne’s evening.
The other protagonist, Lucy Boynton, becomes his quest for love. We also saw this aspect in the trailer. A forbidden love affair between two people in the movie only served to bolster the detractors of a very talented musician.

The cast
Chevalier’s cast includes Kelvin Harrison Jr., who plays Joseph Bologne. In recent years, Harrison has built quite the resume with standout performances in Luce, Waves, and Cyrano. He played B.B. King, another musical icon, most recently in Elvis.
Samara Weaving (Ready or Not), Minnie Driver (Good Will Hunting, Rosaline), Marton Csokas (The Last Duel, The Equalizer), Sian Clifford (Fleabag, See How They Run), Alex Fitzalan (The Wilds), Ronke Adékolujo (Alex Rider), and Lucy Boynton (Bohemian Rhapsody, The Ipcress Files) play Marie Antoinette alongside Harrison in Chevalier.
