Born in Birkenhead, England, Egerton began acting at age 15 and graduated from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in 2012.

He has also starred in several biographical films, portraying military officer Edward Brittain in the drama Testament of Youth (2014), the titular ski-jumper in the sports film Eddie the Eagle (2016), and singer Elton John in the musical Rocketman (2019), the lattermost of which earned him the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy. Egerton was born on 10 November 1989 in Birkenhead, Merseyside. His mother worked in social services, while his father ran a bed-and-breakfast near Liverpool, both of them being Liverpool natives. Although born in England, Egerton considers himself to be Welsh "through and through" and is fluent in both Welsh and English. His first name is a variation of taran, which means "thunder" in Welsh. He has two younger half-sisters. Egerton's parents divorced when he was two, and he subsequently moved with his mother to the Welsh island of Anglesey, where he went to primary school. The family then moved to Aberystwyth when he was 12 years old. He began acting at age 15. He attended the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, from which he graduated in 2012. Egerton performed in a stage production of the play The Last of the Haussmans at the National Theatre in London in 2012. After appearing in the crime drama series Lewis, he was cast as the lead in Matthew Vaughn's Kingsman: The Secret Service, an action comedy film adaptation of the comic book The Secret Service by Mark Millar and Dave Gibbons, in 2013. He portrayed British Army officer Edward Brittain in the 2014 biographical drama film Testament of Youth, earning a nomination for Best British Newcomer at the BFI London Film Festival. Kingsman: The Secret Service was released in 2015, garnering highly favorable reviews that described it as "fun, stylish and subversive" as well as grossing over $400 million. Writing for TheWrap, James Rocchi deemed Egerton "a naturally charismatic presence with smarts behind his smile" as Gary "Eggsy" Unwin, an espionage organisation recruit. Egerton rose to fame with the role. At the 69th British Academy Film Awards in 2016, Egerton received a nomination for the BAFTA Rising Star Award. That same year, he played ski-jumper Eddie the Eagle in the eponymous sports biopic and voiced Johnny, a passionate gorilla, in the animated musical film Sing. Egerton reprised the role of Eggsy in the film Kingsman: The Golden Circle, a sequel to Kingsman: The Secret Service, released the following year. It garnered a mixed critical response. In 2018, he played the title character in the action-adventure film Robin Hood and starred in the crime drama film Billionaire Boys Club. Both films were panned by critics. Egerton later specified that Robin Hood was not the film he had signed up to create and that it had "lost its vision." Egerton starred as singer Elton John in the biographical musical film Rocketman. The film was released in May 2019, receiving positive reviews, and the actor's portrayal of John earned praise The Washington Post's Ann Hornaday opined that Egerton "exerts a steadying, singularly charismatic force" in the role, while Richard Lawson of Vanity Fair described his portrayal as "nuanced and emotionally intelligent while still loose, carried with verve and agility". He won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy for his performance. He also garnered a British Academy Film Award nomination for Best Actor in a Leading Role and a Grammy Award nomination for Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media for his work on the film's soundtrack. In June 2019, Egerton performed "Your Song" live with John in Hove during John's final tour, Farewell Yellow Brick Road.

The actor will reprise the role of Johnny in Sing 2, a sequel to Sing. It is scheduled for a December 2021 release. He will play entrepreneur Henk Rogers in the biographical film Tetris and American drug dealer James "Jimmy" Keene in the limited series In with the Devil, an adaptation of Keene's novel of the same name.
