Sir Elton John has been tipped to star in the upcoming Kingsman sequel.
The Rocket Man is in talks about a role but has yet to sign on the dotted line, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Details of the part aren’t known, but it’s rumoured the singer could be playing himself in a cameo.
Titled Kingsman: The Golden Circle, the movie is the follow-up to the 2014 hit The Secret Service, which starred Colin Firth, Samuel L Jackson and Taron Egerton.

If Sir Elton signs up he will be rubbing shoulders with Tinseltown royalty such as Oscar-winners Halle Berry and Julianne Moore, who are already on board.
There have also been rumours that Colin might make an appearance – despite his character being killed off in the first film – after Taron tweeted a cryptic poster.
