"Rocketman” is to premiere at the Cannes Film Festival next month, with the Elton John-inspired biopic featuring Taron Egerton (in the lead role), Richard Madden and former “Billy Elliot” star Jamie Bell looking to build on the success of other recent music-themed movies such as “Bohemian Rhapsody”.

I watched Rocketman yesterday and absolutely loved it. Its not always easy or comfortable watching but the central performance from Taron Egerton is quite brilliant. The relationship between Elton John and Bernie Taupin is at the heart of this film and Jamie Bell gives a wonderful, understated performance as Bernie. Highly recommended!

In other news, its reported here and elsewhere that Kate Mara and Jamie have announced the birth of their first child together.

Jamie Bell... is an actor whose breadth of onscreen work has remained reliably exciting and thought-provoking. Conventional Hollywood at large just doesn’t always indicate as such.
Thus begins a very thoughtful piece on the website Film School Rejects regarding how, despite consistently excellent on screen work, Jamie has "flown under the radar" as an actor. This is an in depth look at Jamie's career in film to date. Well worth a read.

The article linked above drew my attention to the TV series "TURN: Washington's Spies" which I wasnt really aware of previously and am now binge watching on Amazon Prime during lockdown. Jamie Bell is compelling as usual, so if anyone else is looking for things to watch on lockdown here's one suggestion!
