Rocketman: Taron Egerton to sing his heart out in Elton John biopic

It was an extraordinary and surreal time, and that's how I wanted the film to be." Taron Egerton said, "Elton John is a music icon, but we often forget that he is also a person with a very human story to tell." "We always felt we wanted to be irreverent and make sure the audience feels like it is getting a glimpse into the life of a man who has had a notoriously turbulent time. But it is also so important to make the fans happy and make Elton likeable. This is a raw, human story, but it is also a celebration of a truly great man and what we can learn from him," Taron Egerton shared.
