| Taron has talked about wanting to play Sweeney before. Here’s what he said in an interview from August 2022: “At the moment I’m too young and not gruff enough, but I probably could do it at 40,” he said. “No one’s going to buy me as Sweeney just yet. I need to have accrued enough years to be that jaded and embittered.” I don’t think his youthfulness is an issue with this production, though, given how young Josh Groban reads himself. And, yes, Taron is a terrific actor. He was wonderful in a singing and acting role as Elton John in “Rocketman” and in the recent Apple TV + miniseries “Blackbird.” Whether his considerable vocal chops can rise up to the demands of Sweeney remains to be seen, but I have a feeling he is more than up to the challenge. P.S. Don’t know why clicking on the link to the article is giving me an error message when I have no problem accessing it by Googling “taron egerton sweeney todd.” |
