Taron Egerton is still holding out on his social media break, but at least he is still making moves. Taron has been cast in the film adaptation of Jordan Harper's 2018 crime thriller novel, "She Rides Shotgun".
In the film Egerton will play, "Nate, a recently-released felon who has made a number of dangerous enemies. After he finally gets out of jail, he vows to make a fresh start, which means cutting off the powerful gang he was working for behind bars. When they vow to get revenge by coming after his family, Nate goes on the run with the 11-year-old daughter he hardly knows, Polly."
Good on ya, Taron.
There has yet to be a date given for the release of his Netflix action-thriller film CARRY ON, directed by frequent Liam Neeson collaborator Jaume Collet-Serra.
Just as there is no release date for CARRY ON, there is also no release date for series 4 of the animated series MOOMINVALLEY. Egerton departed the lead role of Moomintroll ahead of series 3 and was replaced by Jack Rowan (NOUGHTS + CROSSES).
I gave no thought to Rowan taking the role. A gig's a gig. Voicing a cartoon? Easy money. But the role ended up meaning a lot to him.
Here's a sampling of OG Moomintroll Taron and version 2.0 Moomintroll Jack.
So, if you are a fan of true crime or detective stories, I 100% recommend this series.
I just finished it tonight and damn, is it good.
There are moments that are so intense, that I was holding my breath...and it’s that kind of quiet intensity where things just build and get more disturbing. And most of these are scenes between two people.
Check it out!

EXCLUSIVE: Taron Egerton and the creators behind Apple TV+’s lauded drama Black Bird are re-teaming on crime series Firebug, inspired by events surrounding notorious California arsonist John Leonard Orr.
Black Bird creator Dennis Lehane, star and executive producer Taron Egerton, and executive producers Richard Plepler, Kary Antholis, Bradley Thomas and Imperative Entertainment’s Dan Friedkin will reteam on the Apple Original series.
Firebug will follow a troubled detective and an enigmatic arson investigator (played by Rocketman star Egerton) as they pursue the trails of two serial arsonists.
Apple’s miniseries adaptation of James Keene’s autobiographical novel, In with the Devil, about his time in prison with suspected serial killer and rapist Larry Hill is a striking crime thriller series. Lehane uses the prison drama formula to create a chilling atmosphere around the gory crimes we never see. As Keene and Hall, Taron Egerton and Paul Walter Hauser portray their real-life characters with a captivating presence.
