Just watched a couple of rerun interviews with Austin Butler, who was guesting on a couple talk shows about the movie Elvis. He is such a quiet voiced, humble man, took nearly 3 years to prepare for the filming, as he had great respect for Elvis, and did not want to disappoint. He changed his voice, learned to sing like Elvis, played his records all day long every day, even had them playing while he slept!!!
He learned how to do the dance moves, and showed things to Jimmy Fallon, how to do stuff. He studied so much, & treasures the praise from Lisa Marie, & from Pricilla. Was all very interesting, as Austin became very knowledgeable about Elvis, was invited to Graceland, & even given Elvis's guitar to play.
I know very few here have seen the Elvis movie, am waiting for it to come on TV......but I think it finally is on CDs for purchase. Austin did a phenomenal job, and I saw the movie the day it was released to theaters, before any of the hype/interviews appeared.
