‘Priscilla’ review: Another fantastic, mature Elvis movie

Elvis Presley was on the soundtrack to the Disney film Lilo & Stitch.The 26-year-old actor and Euphoria star plays the legendary singer in the new film Priscilla, a biopic of Presley’s ex-wife.Appearing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Elordi disclosed that he did not grow up a fan of Elvis’ music, but did become somewhat familiar with him after watching the 2002 animated film. “The most I knew of Elvis was in Lilo & Stitch,” the Australian actor revealed.

Jacob Elordi brings Elvis Presley to life in Sofia Coppola‘s new movie Priscilla, but it turns out that he didn’t know much about the King of Rock before he was offered the role.

“The Tonight Show” to promote his brand new film “Priscilla,” Elordi, 26, was asked by host Jimmy Fallon if he had been a fan of the King of Rock and Roll growing up. “The most I knew of Elvis was in ‘Lilo & Stitch’ … Which is a lot,” the “Euphoria” hunk laughed. Presley and his music make several appearances in the animated movie.

This strike-filled year has been tough for everyone, but in this chaos, some stars are starting to rise. Jacob Elordi had already made a name for himself on HBO‘s “Euphoria.” 2023 has brought critical acclaim for his performances in Emerald Fennell‘s “Saltburn” and stepping into the blue suede shoes of Elvis Presley in Sofia Coppola’s “Priscilla.” Cailee Spaeny landed the first major leading role of her career in “Priscilla” and walked away with the Best Actress honor at the 2023 Venice Film Festival.

The next evolution in Timothée Chalamet‘s acting career? Singing onscreen, which he’ll do first in Paul King‘s “Wonka” and again in James Mangold‘s upcoming Bob Dylan bioopic “A Complete Unknown.” But is Chalamet prepared to take on the role of the iconic singer-songwriter? You bet he is, thanks to his “Dune: Part Two‘ co-star Austin Butler.

There may not have been a red carpet at the L.A. premiere of Priscilla, but the stars still stepped out in style.
