Synopsis

Talent can take you to the top of the world, but it can't always protect you from the demons you bring along for the ride. Dexter Fletcher's musical fantasy "Rocketman" stars Taron Egerton, in a Golden Globe-winning performance, as Reginald Dwight, a shy piano prodigy from the London suburbs who reinvents himself as Elton John. Told through dazzling performances of his best-loved songs, with Egerton doing his own singing, the film traces Elton's meteoric rise, his lifelong songwriting partnership with lyricist Bernie Taupin (Jamie Bell), his turbulent relationship with manager John Reid (Richard Madden) and his battles with addiction and loneliness. Bryce Dallas Howard co-stars as his distant mother. You'll be singing along from the first note to the last.
