Taron Egerton Celebrates 'Apex’s' Second Week at #1 on Netflix With Dance Video

Taron Egerton has posted an energetic dance video on Instagram, celebrating his Netflix film Apex remaining at number one for a second consecutive week. One might expect a psychopathic k***** to stay in the shadows, but Taron Egerton is proving that even the most terrifying villains deserve a victory lap. The film stars Charlize Theron as a grieving climber who must survive a relentless hunt through the wilderness. This gripping narrative, directed by Baltasar Kormákur, has clearly resonated with audiences worldwide since its April 2026 debut.
The actor took to social media to share his joy over a major streaming milestone.

Taron Egerton posted an energetic dance video on Instagram celebrating his Netflix film Apex remaining at 1st position on the top 10 list for a second week. In the viral clip, Egerton dances with unbridled enthusiasm to the 2010 track ‘I Can Change’ by LCD Soundsystem. The text overlay used by him shows the contradiction between wanting to quit social media for mental health and immediately returning to post engaging content to celebrate the success.
“Me: I don’t do Instagram anymore, it’s bad for my mental health”, he wrote.
“Also me”, he added next with the clip of him dancing. Fans quickly flooded the comments to celebrate both his rhythmic moves and the massive global success of the Australian outback thriller. The clip shows Egerton dancing casually in shorts and a jacket around his home.
The survival thriller has maintained its top position with a staggering 40.2 million views, surpassing its debut week performance. The streamer confirmed the film reached the number one spot in eighty-two different countries during its initial release. The video serves as a playful contrast to his dark on-screen persona as a psychopathic k******.
This recent triumph, however, is just one chapter in a highly productive era for the Egerton.

The success of Apex follows a string of projects that showcase the range of this versatile performer. In the recent thriller Carry-On, he starred alongside Jason Bateman in a tense airport-set drama directed by Jaume Collet-Serra.
