We recently saw a dramatization of Elvis Presley’s life and career, which feels like it was only a short while ago. That’s because Elvis, a visually stunning biography directed by Baz Luhrmann, was only released last year and received eight Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture.
In any case, Priscilla, a forthcoming movie, will essentially portray the same tale from a different angle. Recently released trailer of Priscilla shows Priscilla’s life before and throughout her relationship with the singer.
Here’s everything you need to know about Priscilla Presley biopic, including cast and release date:
The title of this drama, which has the potential to be one of the finest A24 films given the talent involved, alludes to Priscilla Presley, who was married to the singer from 1967 until 1973 and is known to many as the “King of Rock ‘n Roll,” as anybody familiar with his or her past will know.
Let us tell you about the talent involved and the other most important facts we know about Priscilla before you hear her side of the story. I’ll start by discussing when viewers may anticipate seeing it.
Priscilla: Release Date and Cast Lead
According to a CNN story, Priscilla will be released in October 2023. However, as its official release date hasn’t been revealed, the movie is presently placed in that month’s area of our forthcoming 2023 movie calendar without a specific day indicated.
According to Variety, Cailee Spaeny will play the title role in the Priscilla cast after making her feature film debut in 2018’s Pacific Rim: Uprising. She then starred in 2020’s The Craft: Legacy and received praise for her work in miniseries like FX’s sci-fi drama Devs and HBO’s Emmy-winning crime drama Mare of Easttown. Jacob Elordi, an Australian actor, plays her Elvis.
Regarding the aforementioned Sofia Coppola engagement with Priscilla, she wrote the screenplay and is now directing the film.
Elvis Presley’s estate, according to TMZ, explicitly criticized the Graceland set designs as “horrible” and “inaccurate” and compared the movie to “a college movie.” Unfortunately, this is one group of people that are unhappy with the filmmaker’s method of writing and directing the movie.
Of fact, Priscilla Presley‘s judgment is more significant in this situation because her standing as an EP almost guarantees that she will approve.
