Paramount Pictures’ ROCKETMAN Receives Rave Reviews Out Of Cannes 2019

By  | 

Director Dexter Fletcher’s ROCKETMAN has had it’s premiere at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival and is receiving positive reviews.

ROCKETMAN is an epic musical fantasy about the incredible human story of Elton John’s breakthrough years. The film follows the fantastical journey of transformation from shy piano prodigy Reginald Dwight into international superstar Elton John. This inspirational story – set to Elton John’s most beloved songs and performed by star Taron Egerton – tells the universally relatable story of how a small-town boy became one of the most iconic figures in pop culture.

ROCKETMAN also stars Jamie Bell as Elton’s longtime lyricist and writing partner Bernie Taupin, Richard Madden as Elton’s first manager, John Reid, and Bryce Dallas Howard as Elton’s mother Sheila Farebrother.

Watch Elton John and Bernie Taupin respond to seeing the film for the first time at Cannes.

Take a look at what the critics are saying on Twitter.

ROCKETMAN opens on May 31. 2019.

Huge passion for film scores, lives for the Academy Awards, loves movie trailers. That is all.
