In a bold and unexpected move, legendary musician Elton John has tapped model-turned-actress Cara Delevingne to play him in an upcoming re-imagining of his iconic 1973 “Step Into Christmas” music video shoot. The surprise casting choice is being hailed as a game-changer by fans and industry insiders alike.
Delevingne, known for her versatile acting chops in films like “Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets” and “Juxtapose,” will take on the role of Elton John himself, recreating the iconic scenes from the original video. The project is being produced by Rocket Pictures, with details still under wraps.
Elton John, who has been open about his struggles with addiction and mental health in recent years, expressed excitement about the collaboration in a statement. “I’m thrilled to have Cara on board,” he said. “Her talent and dedication to her craft are truly inspiring, and I have no doubt she will bring a fresh perspective to this project.”
Delevingne, known for her bold fashion sense and fearless approach to her roles, is equally enthusiastic about the opportunity. “Playing Elton John is an absolute dream come true,” she gushed in an interview. “His music has been a huge part of my life, and I’m honored to have the chance to portray him on screen.”
Rumors suggest that Delevingne will not only play Elton John but also contribute original songs to the project, blending her own unique style with the iconic hits from his legendary discography. While the exact nature of these new tracks remains unclear, fans are already salivating at the prospect of a Delevingne-fronted “Step Into Christmas” remix.
This unexpected collaboration has sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry, leaving many wondering what other surprises Elton John and Rocket Pictures have in store for us. Will we see a re-imagined version of his infamous 1975 performance with Rod Stewart at the Live Aid concert? Only time will tell.
One thing is certain, however: this bold move has cemented Delevingne’s status as one of the most fearless and versatile performers working today. As Elton John would say, “Hold me closer, tiny dancer…” – and by all accounts, we’re in for a wild ride.
