Taron Egerton has been spilling the beans about his work on the set of Rocketman, the film depicting the love life of Elton John.

More specifically, his sex scene with Richard Madden (Elton’s manager).

“I probably shouldn’t be telling you this but we have a sex scene,” Egerton shared with The List. “We went to some places together and got quite physical.”

“I’ve watched it back and I think it looks great. The grown-up nature of the film, combined with it being a musical, makes it feel quite zeitgeisty. I don’t know if I’m allowed to say this but it’s basically about Elton in rehab, so we’re not watering anything down.”

Oh honey, unless we’re seeing the drug-fuelled group sex parties then it’s already too watered down. Egerton went on to say that he “loved every minute” of filming, which he calls “the best work [he’s] done”. Well pulling Richard Madden isn’t a lousy day in the office by any standards.

He also told MTV: “I’m not someone who is remotely perturbed by male intimacy and I am quite proud of what we’ve done with it. We really went some places with it.” Remember, it doesn’t count if it’s just the tip!

Egerton recently had to defend his sexuality after getting the gays excited on Instagram.
