Psss!On a sidenote, it's been reported that the fellow playing Elton John's charatcor role is Taron Egerton, the Welsh actor best known for starring in the two "Kingsman" films.  Egerton, who was announced as the movie’s star earlier in the year, coincendentally already has a memotry with Elton John.

In 2016 Egerton's animated movie  I’m Still Standing," featured him playing a reformed-criminal gorilla named Johnny, and he sang Elton John’s “I’m Still Standing”. It's a small world after all...
