We also get to see Jamie Bell as his songwriting partner Bernie Taupin, and Bodyguard star Richard Madden as Elton's manager and lover John Reid.
The film is written by Lee Hall (the man behind Billy Elliot), and will focus on Elton John’s emergence as a prodigy at the Royal Academy of Music, before transforming into a pop superstar, as well as his partnership with songwriter Bernie Taupin.
Taron Egerton has described the film as "the world's first R-rated musical", so we're expecting plenty of Elton classics to feature.
Taron also performs various Elton classics in the film himself, including 'Tiny Dancer', as seen in the trailer above.
