Taron Egerton’s 'Rocket Man' will appear on the official Rocketman soundtrack, which comes out May 24 via Interscope Records.
Rocketman is centred around Elton John’s life "from his years as a prodigy at the Royal Academy of Music through his influential and enduring musical partnership with Bernie Taupin", according to the film's synopsis.
It also stars Jamie Bell as Taupin, Richard Madden as John Reid, and Bryce Dallas Howard as Elton's mother.
