Of course, the “fantasy” element may mean they’ll be taking significant liberties with the story.
Rocketman looks to be an interesting movie because while the early word on the movie was that it was going to a biopic on the life of Elton John, it seems that’s not entirely accurate.
We do know the story will deal with John’s early years as a musical prodigy as well as him meeting with his longtime partner Bernie Taupin, who will be played by Jamie Bell.
It makes it sound like a broadway “jukebox musical,” just one where the plotline will directly involve the life of the singer responsible for the music being performed.
