If you're looking for a musical biopic that's less history lesson and more a glitter-soaked, emotional ride, Rocketman is it. Taron Egerton doesn't just play Elton John, he *becomes* him, delivering all those legendary hits with a raw vulnerability that will hit you right in the feels. Plus, the glam looks are everything, and Richard Madden as his super hot but kinda shady manager? Yeah, we're not okay.
Rocketman tells the incredible true story of music icon Elton John, born Reginald Dwight, from his humble beginnings as a piano prodigy to his transformation into a global superstar. The film explores his early struggles, his groundbreaking musical partnership with lyricist Bernie Taupin, and the challenges he faced with fame and personal demons. Starring Taron Egerton, who performs all of Elton's iconic songs, it's a vibrant, fantastical journey through the highs and lows of a legendary life.
