However, his road to a nom won’t be easy, with a total miscast of his co-star, who’s thrown into a fat suit with a questionable accent, and an overbaked runtime. The biopic’s awards success will be contingent upon the movie’s overall box office and possibilities in other Oscar categories.
Observing how Butler controls his mannerisms and vocal inflections throughout the film, every movement is intentional, showcasing the musician’s vulnerability.

Standing as one of the sole noms for a film in the best actor category is hard to achieve . Even with a Golden Globe win, BAFTA and SAG nominations, Taron Egerton’s work as Elton John in “Rocketman” failed to make the lineup for the 29-year-old actor. However, his film did go on to be nominated and win the Oscar for best original song .
