Robbie Williams fans will be thrilled by the trailer for “Better Man” – literally.

Paramount released the first trailer for the musical biopic from “The Greatest Showman” director Michael Gracey, which uses a CGI monkey to replace the British pop singer. Yes, really.

“I know what you're thinking. What about the monkey? I'm Robbie Williams. I'm one of the biggest pop stars in the world. But I always saw myself as a little less developed,” Williams says in the trailer. The first look at the musical film appears to be like any other music biopic about a superstar, but every scene with Williams replaces him with a Planet of the Apes-esque ape double.

The trailer shows Williams' early life as an adult and football player, where he is depicted as a clothed monkey. Then there's a highlight reel where Williams appears on stage in front of a crowd of screaming fangs, but he's a screaming monkey with his tongue and oversized teeth.

Here's the official logline: “'Better Man' is based on the true story of the meteoric rise, dramatic fall and remarkable resurgence of British pop superstar Robbie Williams, one of the greatest entertainers of all time. Under the visionary direction of Michael Gracey (“The Greatest Showman”), the film is uniquely told from Williams' perspective and captures his trademark wit and indomitable spirit. It follows Robbie's journey from childhood, to his role as the youngest member of the successful boy band Take That, to his unprecedented success as a record-breaking solo artist – all while facing the challenges that horrendous fame and success can bring.”

The cast includes Steve Pemberton, Damon Herriman, Raechelle Banno, Alison Steadman, Kate Mulvaney, Frazer Hadfield, Tom Budge and Anthony Hayes. Jonno Davies plays the monkey version of Williams.

“Better Man” was written by Gracey, Simon Gleeson and Oliver Cole. Executive producers are Williams, Zhe Chen, Markus Barmettler, Philip Lee, Li-Wei Chu, Michael Loney, Thorsten Schumacher, Lars Sylvest, Mark Williams, Gregory Jankilevitsch, Klaudia Smieja, David Ravel, Domenic Benvenuto, Gianni Benvenuto, Zoran Stojkovic, Dean Hood, David Conley, Daniel Fluri, Adrian Grabe, Andres Kernen, Slava Vladimirov, Jared Underwood and Andrew Robinson.
