Here’s everything you need to know about Baz Luhrmann’s long-awaited musical biopic, 'Elvis'.
If you recognise Butler, it’s most likely from Quentin Tarantino’s, where he had a bit part as the Manson family’s Tex Watson, making his casting in Luhrmann’s much-hyped biopic even more notable. According to reports, Ansel Elgort, Miles Teller, and Harry Styles , all gyrated their hips in auditions for the role before the Oscar-winning director settled on Butler.
As mentioned above, Hanks will appear as Elvis’s manager, a former carnival worker who launched the King’s career in the mid-’50s by negotiating a contract for him at RCA – ultimately staying with Elvis until his death in 1977. From the release of Elvis’s first hit single “Heartbreak Hotel” onward, Parker had a vice-like grip over the musician – taking a significant cut of his royalties and influencing every one of his professional decisions , as well as his personal ones .
The plot will be wide-ranging – and offer a portrait of the spectacular mid-century American music scenedid for Elvis’s contemporary Johnny Cash, Luhrmann’s biopic is expected to trace the King’s life from his childhood in Tupelo, Mississippi, through to his death on his Graceland estate.
Despite the distinctly American storyline, filming happened largely in Queensland rather than Graceland Graceland, Elvis’s Memphis, Tennessee, estate, remains one of the most visited private homes in America more than 50 years after the King’s death. According to reports, Luhrmann fully recreated the Colonial Revival mansion in a Queensland studio, along with the sets for Elvis’s Las Vegas performances in the late ’60s and early ’70s.
