Taron Egerton is still just as good friends with Sir Elton John, who he played in the much loved biopic. Taron became close with the music icon during filming, as he brought Elton’s story to life on screen, and says the pair struck up a ‘genuine friendship’ while working on Rocketman together.

In a new interview with GQ Hype, Taron reflected on Rocketman and how it propelled him into Hollywood, with the actor, 30, picking up a Golden Globe for his appearance in the film.

He revealed that he and Elton still talk all the time, despite not having seen each other for a while – especially given lockdown and the coronavirus pandemic.
