Stan, an Elton John tribute act, has always believed his music career was destined for greatness. But with every missed opportunity and closed door, frustration mounts. One night, after a few too many drinks, Stan stumbles upon a startling theory: his lack of success isn’t bad luck—it’s because Sir Elton John himself is standing in his way. Desperate to change his fate, Stan concocts a reckless plan to take down the music legend and reclaim his own future.
Enlisting his friends George and Ziggy, Stan sets out on a mission that quickly spirals beyond anything they imagined. What starts as a wild, half-baked scheme soon draws them into dangerous territory, where murky figures from the underworld take an unexpected interest in their plan. Blackmail and threats escalate, leaving the trio no choice but to press on, even as the absurdity of their quest becomes undeniable.
As word of their intentions spreads, they find themselves caught between law enforcement, obsessive fans, and their own growing doubts. With every step, the line between fantasy and reality blurs—are they really chasing fame, or have they become pawns in a game they don’t understand?
Killing Elton John is a darkly comic and twisted tale of ambition, delusion, and the lengths we go to rewrite our own stories. Will Stan and his friends succeed in their impossible mission, or are they destined to unravel before they even reach the legend they seek to slay?
