Speaking to Collider earlier this year, Egerton revealed it won't your regular biographical film.
"Everyone thinks it’s a bio-pic. It isn’t. It’s a fantasy musical so it’s actually his songs used to express important beats in his life at emotional moments. He’s not the only character that sings. It’s going to be fun," he said.
Egerton is also a singer, but has been taking lessons to at least help him "create some semblance of a performance that is at least reminiscent of him."
