Taron Egerton got the role of a lifetime — or at least so far for this young actor, who already has made a big cinematic splash in theEddie the Eagle. — Elton John — in a complex, honest and stunning turn in which, takings risks of risks, also performs the musical legend’s songs and even joins John on a duet of the new song written for the film’s end credits, “ Love Me Again.” We talked about all this and more when Egerton visited our Deadline studios for this week’s edition of my video series.
He credits Sir Elton himself for being enormously supportive and helpful in the process but cringes at the thought that should “ Love Me Again” — written for the film by John and Bernie Taupin — get nominated for an Oscar that he would be asked to re-create the duet in front of a billion viewers. However Egerton is becoming quite the musical star and also talks about playing Johnny Gorilla in the animated film,in which he also happened to perform an Elton John tune.
