Paramount Pictures has released the full trailer for Rocketman, an Elton John biopic.

The biopic, named after Elton John’s 1972 hit song, is scheduled to release in May.

Based on a screenplay by Billy Elliott‘s Lee Hall, Rocketman follows the music icon’s life and career.

The film is directed by Dexter Fletcher, who replaced Bryan Singer to complete the Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody.

Taron Egerton is cast in the lead role as the rock legend. Jamie Bell, Richard Madden, Bryce Dallas Howard and Gemma Jones also star in the movie.

Egerton offered an impressive rendering of Elton John’s classic Tiny Dancer in a sneak peek released earlier this week.
