Taron Egerton says he and Elton John have special connection

He is also rarely intimidated professionally by people he is working with, Egerton said.

“I get intimidated socially sometimes, I think, by people, but generally, when I step on set, I’m good,” he said.

Italian Job legend Michael Caine, 93, “levelled the playing field quite quickly” when they worked together on 2014’s Kingsman: The Secret Service.

Egerton said: “He’s so down to earth. And he said a couple of very, very lovely things.”
