Producers have cut a nude scene from Rocketman so it will have a lower age rating.
Bosses requested that director Dexter Fletcher cut a 40-second scene from the Elton John biopic in which Taron Egerton as the musician andas Elton’s manager John Reid are lying together naked on a bed so it can achieve the American rating PG 13 – equivalent to a British 12A. A source told the Daily Mail newspaper: “Two guys have a naked cuddle to express their love for each other and that will be reduced to a fully dressed warm hello. The world knows Elton’s gay it’s no secret.’
The publication also claimed that Elton himself was keen for his wild life and career to be told accurately on the big screen and insisted filmmakers could ‘Tell it all. Go as G-rated as you need to’.Despite earning plaudits from people who have seen him as the Rocketman singer, Taron, 29, has confessed that he doesn’t want to know” when the musician watches the film but he does really want Elton, 71, to be pleased with his portrayal of him.
Host James then inquired as to when Elton will see it, and Taron quickly laughed and replied: ‘I don’t want to know!’
