Cannes2022 shares a new image of Austin Butler & Tom Hanks from Baz Luhrmann's ElvisMovie to celebrate that it will premiere at the festival in May 👀🙌
A newly released image of Baz Luhrmann's upcoming Elvis biopic shows off Austin Butler as the titular King of Rock 'n' Roll, Elvis Presley. The film has been in development since 2014, but no real strides were made until 2019, when Tom Hanks was cast as Colonel Tom Parker, Presley's manager. The list of names in the running for the lead role then included Ansel Elgort, Harry Styles, and Miles Teller, with Butler eventually winning out against his more experienced competitors.
Butler, whose previous roles include Tex Watson in Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood and Jack in Jim Jarmusch's The Dead Don't Die, will be taking centerstage for the first time in his career and performing alongside a few of Luhrmann's regular collaborators, including Richard Roxburgh. Filming for Elvis began in January 2020, but was halted when Hanks and his wife Rita tested positive for COVID in March.
For now, all looks pretty set for Elvis to be another classic Lurhmann picture. From the trailers released so far, it seems to have the same hyper-stylized approach that made Moulin Rouge and Romeo + Juliet such fan-favorites, and features the bombastic musical score, bright color palette, and theatrical direction that makes Luhrmann's work so recognizable. Whether this translates to positive critical scores is still uncertain, but it certainly looks like a good time.
