Tom Hardy To Play Elton John In New Biopic…But He ‘Can’t Hold A Tune’

We're looking forward to this one.

He’s hot, talented and seems like a lovely guy – is there anything Tom Hardy can’t do? Well, it seems so.

The Locke actor has signed on to play Elton John in a biopic called Rocketman but admitted to the Wall Street Journal that he “can’t hold a tune to save my life”.

But our Tom is never afraid of a challenge and when asked whether he would attempt to tackle the vocals, he vowed to give it a go!

“Yeah, I hope so. Otherwise I’ll have probably failed, right? But that’s terrifying me. God knows how I’m going to do that.”

He’ll have a tough judge on set though, as Elton John himself will be taking the role of executive producer on the movie. Rocketman is set to enter production later this year.
