Elton John And Taron Egerton Preview Rocketman With New Performance Of 'Tiny Dancer'

Rocketman blasts off into theaters on May 31 and will visualize Taron Egerton channeling Sir Elton John through a musical fantasy about the latter's early years. An identically magical moment has preceded the film with John and Egerton performing a duet of "Tiny Dancer" at the annual Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party on Sunday night (February 24). It's a symptom of what two trustworthy spirits can do once the appreciation and respect are mutual. This is as good an advertisement for Rocketman because the world can possibly get.


Before John can even play the piano, the two are grinning like they took mom's vehicle for a spin without her permission. Egerton brings some trustworthy, heartwarming energy to this contemporary rendition, serenading the audience with the sort of affection that brings people with each other. John initially starts by pounding the piano keys before eventually joining Egerton. John's soft voice works in conjunction with the keys that keep going up until the song's end, closing the number and efficiency. The complete efficiency soothes on a deeper level.


Be ready to hear more of Egerton's voice as John when Rocketman hits theaters at the end of May. The film also stars Jamie Bell, Richard Madden, and Bryce Dallas Howard. Egerton himself sings in the film, and you could expect to hear his own renditions of "Tiny Dancer," "Your Song," and other massive Elton John hits onscreen. If this efficiency is any symptom, viewers are in for a serious treat.


Watch the smooth efficiency up above.
