Elvis Presley dazzled the world by adding sensuality to modern music. Not for nothing is he considered the ‘King of Rock & Roll’, owner of unforgettable songs like “Jailhouse Rock” and “Can’t help falling in love”. After 45 years since his death, Warner Bros will release a film about the singer’s life.
The biopic is directed by Baz Luhrman, known for his work on the series The get down and the adaptation of The Great Gatsby. As if that wasn’t enough of a guarantee of the promising outcome, the first trailer gave us a glimpse of Austin Butler’s challenging performance.
