Mr. Elton JohnBorn Reginald Dwight in a small town in northwest London, Elton John, his grand piano, and his funky glasses have sold more than 300 million records in career that has spanned 5 decades. The fantasy film about his life, Rocketman, is due out in May.
Vote up the actors who most resemble their real-life counterparts.
The Elton John biopic Rocketman tells the story of one of the biggest musicians of all time. It follows the remarkable life of the musician as he became a legendary performer in the generation that gave us some of the best singers in rock. The actors who play the real people of Rocketman have big shoes to fill, as the eccentric, flamboyant, and often short-tempered entertainer is not easily copied.
English actor Taron Egerton plays Elton John in Rocketman. He sports some of John's greatest fashion statements with pizzazz throughout the film. The two even performed Tiny Dancertogether at a 2019 Oscars viewing party, proving they might have more in common than looks.
As for the rest of the Rocketman movie cast versus the real people they play - did Hollywood make a good match, or could the producers have done a better job?
