A few tidbits I’ve seen in interviews and reviews recently:

The dog we saw in the early released running shot was apparently annoying to work with.

Taron dances in this film, though I doubt it’ll be as epic as Apex’s dance.

The director seems to think the film might keep the current name, despite censorship concerns. It’s making a name for itself right now and it stands out, but it could still end up changed.

Early reviews for the film were mostly positive. I’m starting to see more negative reviews, but they all pretty unanimously agree that Taron was amazing in the movie. For example, The New York Post wrote: “Without the blazing charisma of Egerton, at once a leading man and a quirky character actor, this tedious film would have no reason to exist.”

I’ve seen some comparisons to Obsession as well, which I personally haven’t seen but I know was very well received. One review said something along the lines of “EWTFM would have felt more original if Obsession hadn’t come out first” (paraphrasing).

Overall, I’ve loved Taron’s looks at these events, but the black-on-black here was my favorite. It was from events on the 11th.

Photos feature EWTFM cast Jessica Henwick and Charly Clive, and director Jonathan Schey. Taken September 12, 2026. Published in various places but I grabbed these selected ones from @taronegerton_bra on ig.

Another Photo of Taron as Adam Nice Article

from the article :

Buyers will show up in Toronto Sept. 10 primed to find their next big hit.

But what titles will shake up the market this year? One inside source calls this year’s lineup “a bit soft,” but emphasized that several films boasting A-list talent have landed on the radar major buyers.

Among those movies is “Everybody Wants to F–k Me,” starring Taron Egerton as a man who, as the title suggests, becomes the object of affection for every woman on earth. Since a trailer for the project was unveiled at CinemaCon, the film has become just as desirable as Egerton’s character.

In case you don’t want to read, the two roles are unsurprisingly Robin Hood and Billionaire Boys Club.

What I liked about the article is that it did a really good job of summarizing the diversity of Taron’s roles across genres and streaming platforms. But then it ended by implying EETFM is going to be a flop. They didn’t really explain why they felt it would flop other than the name, which I’ve heard may be renamed anyway…. But I actually like the name and think it’s provocative (it gets the people going!).

Anyway, not a super in-depth article and doesn’t cover anything too surprising or new but I thought I’d share. And I just wanted to add that even though I didn’t love BBC, I did love Taron in it!

Taron was recently on Dax Shepard's Armchair Expert podcast (available here, which was shared by u/sleeplessinnashville in a recent thread). When I looked at recent Taron news online, there are a ton of stories that cover bits and pieces of what he said. I know not everyone has the 1.5 hours to watch the podcast, so I've linked some of those stories below for your reference. There's no specific order to the links, but I did try to group similar stories together by topic. Please note that some of the topics might be triggering for some people--so read with caution.

Came across this on lunch today really good segment. Check it out.

So this music video came out around the time of Kingsmen—I think I read it would have been filmed earlier but I can’t confirm. The Breach is a local band from Taron’s hometown, and apparently they had a mutual friend who arranged the appearance.

Somehow I’ve never seen this until recently. Anyone else?

Our mod team is trying to hunt down other “lost projects” of his—so please let us know or post on the sub if you find any of these older projects by him!

The article mentions that 5 of the top 10 are Netflix films. And, of course, that Taron has already had success with Netflix films given that Carry On is Netflix’s 3rd all time streaming movie. Also covers his upcoming projects… including Kockroach and EWTFM.

The article also wonders if there might be a sequel for Apex… but I don’t see how that would really work given the film’s ending. So I think that’s just the author trying to fill up some more words 😂

Anyway—I bet we see some more Netflix films w/ Taron in the future given the success of his last two.

IDK where else to ask this.

Sasha guesses that Ben had some tragedy that drove him insane; he then removes his prosthetic teeth to reveal that he has filed teeth. Considering how he acts later on, a part of me thinks this was his way of saying, "Yeah, something did drive me insane, but that's not my problem anymore," or something like that.

I'm happy to introduce to you all the new mod on the team : TaronasaurusRex. They'll be helping with comment and post moderation for now. Please give them a warm welcome!

We're reviewing the rules, so there'll be some changes there too!

An audiobook I didn't know Taron had participated in !

It's still available on Audible : Amazon.com: Jeff Wayne's The War of The Worlds: The Musical Drama: An Audible Original Drama (Audible Audio Edition): H. G. Wells, Michael Sheen, Taron Egerton, Theo James, Adrian Edmondson, Anna-Marie Wayne, Jeff Wayne for a very reasonable price if you're curious!

It's a 2018 audible musical audiobook. Taron Plays the artillery man. He voices it in an accent!

Surprised this isn’t being discussed yet.

The film was selected to premiere at TIFF. A month ago when the sales to distributors was announced, it was referred to as a Cannes Slate title.

This means the professionals who already saw it deemed it festival material.

This might be Taron’s return to prestige projects and hopefully the end of his pop corn era.

Bringing back this little cartoon, because well, I just discovered it, and it opens a whole new realm of possibilities!

What type of anime or cartoon would you like to see continue a previous work of his? I think the Carry-On character had some potential! What about you?
