TAKE A ‘WILD RIDE’ WITH THE TRAILER FOR ELTON JOHN BIOPIC ‘ROCKETMAN’

The film, which stars Taron Egerton, traces John's rise from the Royal Academy of Music toward becoming one of pop music's biggest stars.

"There are moments in a rock star's life that define who he is," manager John Reid says in the clip below. "Where there was darkness, there is now you – and it's going to be a wild ride."

Reid is portrayed by Richard Madden. Egerton does his own singing in the movie; that's him performing Elton John's Top 10 1972 smash "Rocket Man" in the trailer.
