A Freddie Mercury hologram show may be happening soon.
Mercury Songs Limited, which owns the late Queen frontman's solo work, has applied for a 3D and virtual reality trademark in his name.
The application, obtained by The Sun's Bizarre Column, covers “immersive 3D virtual, augmented reality and mixed reality experiences” for “virtual environments”.
The “Don't Stop Me Now” hitmaker died in 1991 at the age of 45 from bronchial pneumonia, a complication of AIDS.
However, it seems likely that she will return to the stage in a digital avatar, similar to her successful ABBA Voyage show in London.
Queen has already performed an illusion of Freddy at their concerts.
Guitarist Sir Brian May, 76, breaks down in tears after performing a duet of 'Love of My Life' with Freddie's optical illusion during Queen and Adam Lambert's 2022 'Rhapsody Tour' flowed.
But as for Queen having their own hologram show like ABBA, Brian has previously admitted that he and his bandmates would love to do that when they move on.
Appearing on The Graham Norton Radio Show podcast last year, he said, “We've all talked about and seen the Freddy hologram.”
“We love being live and dangerous. That's our focus. That's our focus.”
“Now, when everyone's gone, of course you're going to talk about ABBA, but while we're here, we want to play live.”
He continued, “I have a little talk with Freddie.
“I don’t know if you remember, but I usually do “Love of My Life,'' and at the end of the show Freddie comes in and joins me.
“But it's not a hologram, it's more like an old-school technology that we like.”
But that doesn't stop Freddy's solo hologram show from happening.
