Browsing: Taron Egerton

Okay so, you know those times when creators are being sarcastic online and we can’t tell if their serious or not? This tweet from Mark Millar is definitely one of those kinda moments. Millar, who is currently hip-deep in developing a slew of projects for Netflix (among other things) has an interesting idea for who […]

Rocketman made me unbearably angry at Bohemian Rhapsody all over again. Dexter Fletcher directed both, picking up the reigns on the Queen biopic after continual problem child Bryan Singer was fired by Fox, steering the ego-driven ship to an incredible audience and critical response, nabbing a multitude of awards (like Emmys, BAFTAs, and the Oscar for Best […]

Sir Elton John’s annual AIDS Foundation Academy Awards viewing party took a musical turn with Taron Egerton joining the legend on stage for a duet on “Tiny Dancer”.

Taron looks pretty great. Posted last night on the official Twitter account for the film, Rocket Man shared this first image from the […]

It seems strange that there hasn’t been a big picture biopic about the one and only Sir Elton John yet, but that’s going to change come 2019. Taron Egerton (Kingsman, Eddie The Eagle) will be playing Elton John in the film, titled Rocketman, which was just pushed back from an original release date to May 31st, 2019. Dexter Fletcher will […]
