    Taron Egerton finds it "hard" to watch himself on-screen

    The 35-year-old actor has admitted that his mood often dictates whether he wants to watch himself on screen or not


    The Hollywood star - who rose to prominence in the 'Kingsman' film franchise - told 'Extra': "It really depends on how I'm feeling.

    "If I'm feeling robust, then it's all good. If I'm not feeling robust, it can be hard, and I think that's just called being a human being.

    "It's certainly not something that I rush to do, maybe as much as I used to, but I do also like to see a movie come together or a TV show come together."

    Taron previously acknowledged that he's been "really, really lucky" as an actor.

    The movie star - who previously appeared in the Sir Elton John biopic 'Rocketman' - conceded that "some lovely opportunities" came his way during an important phase in his acting career.

    During an appearance on Sky News' 'Backstage' podcast, Taron explained: "I was so lucky between the ages of sort of 23 and 28 in that I had some lovely opportunities, and I just was really, really lucky as an actor with the things that came my way.

    "But I did feel that I was waiting for something meaty and that arrived in the form of 'Rocketman', and it also had this commercial appeal, and it was just a great thing, and I felt that once all was said and done and we were finished, my instinct was: 'You absolutely have to follow this with something interesting and don't just rush into something'."
