Growing up around Memphis, I’d see Elvis leaving Graceland on his motorcycle some times. This gave me chills.
"KATHERINE DID ELVIS PRESLEY, "EVER STOP AND TALK TO YOU"??? "JUST WONDERING"??? "THANK YOU VERY MUCH"!!! "WAYNE GOODGER"!!! "AUSTRALIA"!!!🔦👑🎆🏄🙌😝💟✌

LIES...ALL LIES!!!
I was an extra on this movie! Baz Lurman treated us with such enormous respect and decency, his attention to detail was astonishing and I came away with the best memories
That's so cool. What did you do
thats awesome
Hey anne,ya know what,,,this is so lovely to hear that you were treated so good ,,thanks for letting us know a little bit about the young man who has taken on the massive task of being the king how nice it is to know that you were respected just the way I imagine elvis would have, god bless and love from ireland xx
Lucky you i love Elvis
Yeah ya were!!!!
My Sister passed away on Feb 2, 2022 at the age of 38…she loved Elvis. She had all of his movies, blankets, cups she had everything Elvis. I don’t know if I should cry or smile. I’ll watch it for her
So sad to about your sis passing away being so young RIP
@@edchan8653 Thank you so so much
So SO sorry to hear this Ebony. I pray for you forever because the sadness will always be there. May God bless you and your family who miss your beloved sister and Always provide for all your needs. x
@@paulhuggett7503 thank you so so so much!!!
It breaks my heart when he says, "I'm going to be 40 soon and nobody's going to remember me." Don't worry, Elvis they remembered.
I am anxious to see it . Elvis was a complicated and simple man at the same time . Sorry Austin your handsome but NO One on earth was as handsome as Elvis!!
I just hope they do Elvis right. He is a legendary performer and the man should get the respect he deserves.
❤️ 👑
If not Lisa Marie should sue the hell out of them

@@AngelSoto-bz2nv do some more research they started dated when she was 16 with parental consent, married when she 20, and they had a daughter together.
Agree, I hope it will not be a "disaster" like some movies of different artists...
I'm optimistic that Elvis is finally going to get the serious big screen biopic he has long deserved.
No, Butler is not an Elvis lookalike. No one is. But it's called acting, not impersonating. Let's give the kid a chance.
I hope the movie is as good as the trailer.
That’s because no one can look like Elvis he was unique but undeniably Austin Butler is a young good looking spunk just like Elvis.
I personally can’t wait for this movie as Baz is very clever and his films are aesthetically beautiful. I’m sure Baz will honour the humble and rare man that was Elvis. I’m confident that Baz will bring some humanity and depth into the man that lived and graced the world with ‘Elvis’ and what he created historically with his music.
I agree completely.
True also john Wayne needs one as well
Dont worry someone will at least do a few Elvis deep fakes hopefully to some scenes after this movie goes on DVD
Well at least he's 30 so he's old enough to pull off his later years
0:59 I love that they remembered Elvis was a Captain Marvel Jr fan.
"I'm gonna be forty soon, and nobody's gonna remember me." For someone so right and amazing on so many things, I'm proud to say you were wrong about this one, Elvis!
This looks like it could be great. The world has never quite been the same since we lost Elvis Presley.
I had the honor of Elvis singing the whole "Love Me Tender" song to me while on one knee and holding my hand in his back in the 70's. My Kids Dad had won some money at the crap table at the Hilton while I waited in line, came back and asked what seat I wanted and I told him up next to the stage if we can afford it. He handed the Maître'd some money and we were taken down to the stage where we were seated. I will never ever forget how in awwww I was and I think I was in shock LOL. I have seen Elvis many times in person but this was the best of the best for me!!! I hope I get to see this "ELVIS" movie. I have been an Elvis fan since 1955 and that will never change.

55 you mean
@@garydonner7303 Oh yeah I need to correct.
'Let me tell you the definitive truth about Elvis Presley and racism', The King of the Blues, B.B. King said in 2010. 'With Elvis, there was not a single drop of racism in that man. And when I say that, believe me I should know'.
He paid for the Martin Luther King memorial. Not a well known fact, but there is a reunion with some of the MM where they talk about the benefit concert he did for it. He was always a generous, gracious and God loving man. Not a racist bone in his body. ❤️
...to be judged not by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character. Quite often, I think of that line from Dr. King's glorious 1963 speech. In many ways, Elvis epitomized those words. While on tour during the 70's, Elvis would correct those who acknowledged him as the KING OF ROCK AND ROLL. He always made it a point to tell his audience that there was only 1 true king... Jesus Christ. Now that's character!🫂
He grew up poor with plenty of poor black people around him. I doubt he cared about skin colour, as BB King said.
@@delishme2 There are too many bones in this world who are constantly looking for something to call racist!!!!!!!!!!
Sad isn’t it the BLM and Antifa types spray painted Graceland a year or so ago. Shows stupid people can be destructive
I love how his jumpsuits change colors in the one shot of him in the 1970's. Very cool visual.
Oh no Elvis! ♡♡♡
You will never be forgotten....The King of Rock and Roll.

My best friend died when he was 18, he was a massive Elvis fan whereas I thought he was ok, I vowed from that moment on that I would buy every Elvis single released in memory of him. After a few singles i started to think to myself this Elvis guy ain’t half bad. A musical love affair with the greatest singer & performer of all time had begun. I’ m always sceptical when a movie or series comes out but this trailer has blown me away. Want to watch it now, can’t wait & as Elvis would say I DON’T SOUND LIKE NOBODY, he was & still is truly unique.
Now, Elvis was a huge fan of Dean Martin, and copied him in a lot of his ballad songs, just as Dean and Frank copied a lot of Bing Crosby. Bing and Louis Armstrong were probably the two most originals of the 20th Century.
I am so sorry to hear you lost your best friend at such a young age. May he Rest In Peace❤️
He died on my 18th Birthday, I was devestated
Who is singing- the actor or Elvis. Does Lisa Marie approve of this movie
This gives all appearances of a lifelong chronicle, all the way to '77. I am blown away. This trailer looks spectacular. The stage outfits emphasized, the dance moves, the snippet of his childhood, the way he grew up, the "walk", the rhythm of Elvis, all the things that made him and make him an icon. It looks like a respectful, tasteful, remarkable film and production. If anyone deserves a Ray, Walk the Line, Coal Miner's Daughter caliber biopic, it's EP. I'm thinking Baz worked hand in hand with Graceland Enterprises and Cilla and Lisa Marie on this. I'd drive 50 miles to go see this film tonight if I could. It looks that good.
Actually he didn’t work with them which is a good thing the Priscilla projects put too much emphasis on herself as a victim we needed a new take and we got one, remember EPE is owned by other interest and not the Presley’s. I do hope Lisa and Priscilla do give their blessings to the film but they have been involved in too many mediocre projects we needed a new vision that didn’t involve Priscilla she’s had plenty of chances to get the story right.
@@lilwaynesworld0 so far she's fked ALL her chances up n giggled all the way to the bank. She's the very definition of gold diggers n should write a book on that subject alone. There's a REASON why she was omitted from his will.
While we wait for the movie: czcams.com/video/AhE_9EYxt3s/video.html
I think it caricatures him and it’s in danger of being tacky. It also embellishes. Elvis was a humble boy and would never have said “I’m ready to fly”. He had a lot of self awareness too. We shall see in the final product but I’m not getting good vibes.
@@charlieangelyoutube man, I hope yr ass is wrong on all counts, I've gotta a bad damn feeling that ur more than likely SPOT ON 🤯🤯 Hanks is playing parker n I'm thinking they're gonna turn it into a turdhead tom parker event. I'm pretty biased cause I was around back then. Every movie that's been made so far has tried to make elvis a bad person in one way or the other n I don't think he was.
All the women want to talk about was HIS women n all the men say how much dope he did. NOBODY remembers his charity or the lavish gifts that he gave to complete STRANGERS. He said it himself
(It's hard to live up to an image)
TCB 👍👍
My sweet grandmother was the biggest Elvis fan. I was raised on his music and grew up hearing her many, many stories of when she was a young girl following his career. She is deep in dementia/parkinsons, unable to walk or talk. I am tearing up watching this trailer, knowing just how much she would LOVE this. I would love nothing more than the opportunity to watch this with her and hear her thoughts ❤️
Play her his music and I guarantee she will react people with dementia seem to respond to music I have done it to a family member who had deep dementia played music she was a professional dancer and she lit up and started to dance in her wheelchair arms swinging smiling and singing hope this will help her it’s worth a try , don’t give up just keep playing it til she responds
I hear you sister. My dear mother passed away 9 months ago from LEWY BODY dementia. She loved Elvis. I wish she was still on this rock to see this film. Greetings from Southern California 🕺
I feel you. My mother passed in 2011 with early onset Alzheimers. She always smiled when I played Elvis' music. She passed while listening his gospel music.
I am huge Elvis fan too...
Was just thinking the same thing about my Mom who died on 2/15.
Finally the greatest entertainer of all time gets to shine once more on the big screen. Younger audiences will get to see the splendour of what this man was able to accomplish in a short lifespan. No one can replace Elvis we know that but finally I hope the movie gives justice to a once in a lifetime icon .
The KING !!! ALWAYS and FOREVER
claudio Corleone Yes!! And a new younger generation will be heading to Graceland
Austin Butler, you will be a huge star after this movie comes out, I see many award nominations, including a Oscar nod, 'Elvis forever'.
Never be another like him, I pray to God they get it right....I like what I see and am so excited
LONG LIVE THE 👑
One of the things that made Elvis so special besides his incredible singing voice, charisma, and overall exceptional talent was the fact that he never lost his hunger to stay relevant and successful. He never took anything for granted. He was always humble about it and knew his fans put him on top and really loved them and appreciated all they did to make him a success. Today, some artists with 100th his talent are cocky, arrogant, see the fans as an afterthought, and seem to think they are untouchable. The man who turned out to be the biggest entertainer of all time knew that even as popular as he was, that the business is fickle and unpredictable and could go sideways quickly if trends changed and new competition came along and started taking away his fan base. Yet here we are still loyal 45 years after his death and admiring and revering him as if he just passed away yesterday. That is the biggest testament to how truly special Elvis was and is. He really was a once in a millennium entertainer and phenomenon. They will still be talking about his greatness 100 years from now. What a huge footprint for a poor boy from Tupelo, Mississippi to leave in his short 42 years on this Earth.
how TF do you know? Grow TF UP, dude! He took his whole life for granted; his marriage, his body, his health, his voice. he cheated on his wife - took his relationships for granted. god, you sound ridiculous. Elvis was an enormous talent...he hated the fame, obviously, and drugged himself daily to escape it. Towards the end, he couldn't even sing without reading the lyrics off cards, he couldn't remember the lyrics, so drugged out of his mind, sweating profusely, slurring his words, obese in size. And, NO..the Fans did not make him famous, ELVIS' talents made him famous. Let the man rest in peace. prsicilla and daughter still trying to milk him for everything, going through his entire estate. I'm sure he would have hated this fcking movie...and if he's not here to say yes or no to this 'tale', I ain't watching it.
i do not belive elvis commited sucide he loved god
He loved his mama and it killed him when he lost her, he didn’t mean to go.
@@dannywilson7238 Elvis did not commit suicide, he was a very sick man near the end of his life with a load of medical problems.......he had a massive heart attach due to a culmination of the medication AND the various medical problems he was living with.....they were numerous... he probably was addicted to some of his medication because there was a lot of pills prescribed ......when he did his last concert in '77 he had serious issues with glucoma.........there is a book stating all the issues medically that I believe is quite accurate....do some research please and have some respect for a legend!!!!
Thank goodness for African-American music, culture, and style because they gave us Elvis Presley.
I believe this is going to be acknowledged in the film. There would be no rock and roll without black culture. Sadly, at the time, white singers were the “palatable” option for record companies to promote. At least this is being acknowledged in the film. Elvis was a star in his own right. What he did on stage and the timbre in his voice was uniquely his own, but there’s no question where his inspirations derived. I look forward to seeing this film!
Thank goodness for RnB, and country and gospel, worship and all the musical and cultural influences. Get it right.
So true! If only people could get passed race and see that Elvis' biggest influence was the BLACK CHURCH! He said so himself. His black cook Nancy Rooks said that he told her that God made a mistake when he didn't make him black. He knew where his soul originated from. The white country music was more of a coverup to sell to white audiences because of money by Parker. Most people don't even know that Elvis was once the top selling artist in black music in the 50s. Let that sink in. He was bigger than Little Richard among black radio. That's how he changed the world by breaking down racial barriers.
Yep. It angers me when i hear Elvis stole black music. It was his music, the music he was brought up on. The only thing white about Elvis was his skin. Elvis always acknowledged where he got his influences from and never once called himself The King, a title that he didnt like and felt he didnt deserve.
Thank goodness for WHITE and black music because that's what rock is.
The first time I was allowed to spend the night with a friend, Elvis came on and we started listening to one of his songs, and tears just started rolling down my face,my friend didn't say anything to me until the song went off the air,and he said that Elvis song really touched you boy didn't it, I shocked my head yes, the song was I got a thing about you baby,A thing about loving you!
Blain, "Honky Tonk Angel" is pretty good also. But then the great man recorded 700 songs while alive so there are so many good ones to choose. "Never Ending" is also a very good ballad.
Been to Graceland 3 times! I will always adore Elvis!
I keep watching this over and over....can't wait to see this, should be terrific. My mom saw Elvis in concert when she was pregnant with me! Long live the King!
Hello Kristen
How are you doing hope you are okay?
I have viewed it 50 times. It wonderful, and a splendor to watch. As Baz says "it's an invitation to come into the movie" What Baz is really saying here is. I have drawn back the cinema curtain slightly so we "the audience" can come into the special World of Elvis that Baz has created. And what a wonderful creation Luhrmann has constructed. This film is Oscar bound.
@@TERRYMism I totally agree!
@@TERRYMism also it sounds American looks American American story! But was filmed in Australia!
The Day Elvis Died. August 16, 1977. Sylvia of the Sweet Inspirations maybe explained Elvis the best out of the millions of others who felt the loss at the time. On that hot day in August when Elvis died in 1977 Sylvia memorably explained "I made the mistake of calling Elvis boss once, and he quickly corrected me; I'm not your boss, I'm your brother." THIS WAS ELVIS.
I agree ! & w Elvis died ! I felt like half of me died 4 sure ! TCB & TLc xx ooo ! 100 % !
I was with my mom coming home from Norton AFB commissary. We heard it on the radio. My mom started crying, it broke her heart and mine cause mom taught me to love Elvis. 💔😞
I came home after playing outside and my mom told us Elvis had died. She was really upset. I was only 9 and years later she bought me Cilla’s book and then I saw the movie “Elvis and Me” on tv and was hooked. Went to Graceland six years ago. It was great just wish I’d stayed over.
I don't ever remember a time when I didn't love Elvis - Can't wait to see this!
This brought me to tears. Elvis was the king for a reason. I'm so glad that Baz got a hold of this. This is going to be spectacular.
I think this TRAILER should be nominated for an Academy award! I'm sold!
As an Elvis freak myself, just watching this trailer, I can see all the immaculate attention to detail in the suits, clothes, Graceland, Lauderdale Courts,..... everything so far I've seen looks perfect. Now let's hope they tell a real and true story, not one made in only one persons eyes. I hope it took a whole village.
Every person on this planet now and in the future should always be made aware of this man. Elvis was a gift from God. Never to be forgotten.. TCB ⚡️
God showed Elvis, who is the greatest of them all?
What does the TCB mean?
@@cacatr4495 Taking Care of Business.. TCB
No .. Jesus is the gift of God. Elvis actually told a woman who was screaming at him "Elvis! You're the King! Elvis replied "No.. Jesus Christ is the King' " I'm just a man...
@@lindaalcorn932 if you want to get technical about it every baby is a gift from God. Some more special than others. Elvis was a special gift. Why are you on this page anyway? I didn’t say he was the King of man. But he certainly was the King of Rock and Roll. TCB⚡️
Huge Elvis fan! About time they made a big budget movie about his amazing life! Going to be a 'King' size blockbuster!
Ah man... this crazy world today NEEDED a movie like this. One of the original integrators. They called him the Memphis Flash. Elvis FINALLY gets his world tour! TCB.
Because I don't know, what does TCB mean?
@@cacatr4495 It was Elvis' personal saying which turned into a motto for his bandmates, "Taking Care of Business." The lightning bolt logo that you see in the movie trailer was actually a nod to Elvis' appreciation for Captain Marvel. Elvis was a big comic book reader as a kid. Elvis designed that logo and gave chains to all of his bandmates with that insignia.
@@depper
Chains? Do you mean neckchains?
@@cacatr4495 Yeppers :)
Depper the world tour should have happened in the 1980s. Elvis in 1977 should have gone to Hawaii for a year to get all that Chemical Garbage out of his system. Fired Parker, Installed Tom Hullett as his new manager and while getting himself of the chemicals Hullett could have scouted overseas for tour dates, lets say for 1979/80 I have often thought that last night on 16 August may have been a mistake on Elvis' part. Possibly he said to his inner-self..."if I wake tomorrow morning from this night I'll go to Hawaii and dry-out". Oh, if only all that was true. However, we'll never know. Go well Depper. How we all long for much simpler times. Will humanity live long enough to see this movies release. Its always the politicians that make war and civilians that suffer the most from it.
Sometimes they make a trailer so perfect. I have to watch it multiple times in a row after I first see it. Then at least once a week until the movie comes out. This is one of those trailers
This is possibly the best trailer I've ever seen to be honest.
I love how he introduces the trailer. Such a special, rare, but old Hollywood thing to do!❤️
Hello Dogmatic
How are you doing hope you are having a grate day?
I was thinking the same thing! I love it! Can't wait to see this film!
He Needs to introduce another actor because this one looks Nothing like Elvis. Terrible choice
They better do Elvis justice in every aspect. He deserves it. Expectations are high..
@@octavius8562 People who make dumb and insensitive comments like the one that you just made, are exactly what has done the tremendous disservice to the way Elvis is seen these days... People like you, along with all those wanna-bee Elvisses and impersonators have made him out to be a caricature, a joke, a Las Vegas wedding prop. What people like you don't seem to realize is that Elvis' significance as the prophet of modern music, as the guy who didn't invent Rock 'n' Roll from scratch but who blurred the strict segregating line between black and white music, gave it its attitude. Elvis was the force that made Rock 'n' Roll the cultural, life changing, phenomenon it became. Elvis had so much presence, electricity, and an aura about him that actually glowed in person, which has never really been duplicated, only replicated. Hopefully this stunning biopic will show you a thing or two about the remarkable legend that Elvis Presley was, still is and will always be. If it doesn't, it wouldn't hurt you to learn a thing or two about simple respect.
@@octavius8562 You mean how the man who couldn’t sleep, left his girlfriend to go read in the washroom so she could sleep? I can relate, I’ve done that plenty of times during my lifetime.
not a chance! Hell, the most important thing is out. The guy looks nothing like Elvis period!
I agree ! & It is about time ! Our Elvis finally gets that ! 2 long over due ! 4 our dear & sweet Elvis ! Rip Elvis ! please !
This is going to be a well received Elvis movie. The trailer moved me to tears. I’m one of those who believe Elvis’s spirit, charisma and looks can not be duplicated but this young actor embodies and emits the raw power of his performances and very importantly, those moves…especially the familiar Elvis strut!
The trailer ticked every progressive woke box
@@nidgemorphie4316
Doesn’t it ever get exhausting? Don’t you want a long (dirt) nap?
@@frankiebowie6174 it's actually an interesting view into human psychology and the effects of ideology and dogma on it. And as usual the woke have no self reflection and dish out veiled threats
He looks fuck all like elvis. And this looks crap.
Trailers not always accurate
“I wasn’t just a fan, I was his brother. He said I was good and I said he was good; we never argued about that. Elvis was a hard worker, dedicated, and God loved him … I love him and hope to see him in heaven. There’ll never be another like that soul brother”. --- James Brown ----- During Elvis' wake, James was the last to leave, and was so distraught they needed multiple people to help him out of the room.
James Brown loved Elvis more than anything.
You drank the Elvis Kool-Aid
Austin Butler is doing a very good job to play Elvis with Tom Hanks as Parker. I'm so excited to see this Elvis movie. It's gonne be a total different Elvis story.
There will never be another ELVIS. He is the KING 👑 ♥️🎶
Can’t stop watching this trailer It looks and sounds phenomenal and BAZ has got the costumes down to a tee
but I hope this biopic givesElvis the recognition he deserves and put all these false lies told about him Since his death and I hope that this film will do this and finally help put all the lies to rest where they belong Elvis deserves this at least Because of the human being that he was
Can’t wait to see this movie I will be there for the premier my love for Elvis will never die ❤️🙏🏻⭐️😍😊 let’s TCB forever
My first concert, Elvis at the San Diego Sports Arena 1973. Nosebleeds. I was 7. I also cannot stop watching this trailer. Looks amazing. Hope it lives up to the expectation.
I don't think I've ever watched a movie trailer so many times.
It got me interested in Elvis 🤷♂️
@@claieta Fantastic welcome to the Elvis
World TCB Forever
I was astonished to hear this story on set! Never (until now) being an Elvis family hadn’t paid much attention to him growing up, so was astonished to find out the true story
The life of Elvis Presley was the most glorious, but yet most tragic story of all time. This movie will show it all. It looks like it is going to be AMAZING!
OML THE CHILLS FROM THIS TRAILER!!! 😩🖤💫❗️My folks and my brother will poke fun at me for listening to Elvis but I genuinely love the guy’s music even tho I’m a couple of decades late 😅 (I’m 21) for me it’s all about the story and icons of back in the day I’m young but I njoy the classic’s Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison are like a time machine! And so will this movie will be too. can’t wait to see it 😔✨❗️
Shon Sutorei goes you. he's amazing I am almost 67 years old, and I grew up with Elvis since I was 4 years old... there is nobody like him, my children love him, my grandchildren too, he is truly a gift from God, and how blessed we all are that he has left behind such a legacy for us all to have a piece of... beautiful man, but so sad for him too, he truly loved Priscilla and Lisa Marie he loved his fans he never walked away such a humble loving caring godly man and his voice never failed him sick or not xx
Your in good company shon..Elvis fans span the generations..his music is legendary..
Absolutely loved it! A must see! During Elvis’s first performance in the movie, I felt teleported back in time and I wanted to jump and scream with the teenage girls in the movie!

Elvis’ story has been told many times he was gods gift to the universe born in Tupelo like comet 💫 he was pushed and isolated by Colonal who defiantly exploited him but Elvis soldiered on after his mama died when he was only 22 years old Elvis had more talent in his little pinky than any other performer IN HISTORY
It's about time a movie is made so all the young people can be introduced to the greatest performer I have ever known. Keep the King alive and let the world get to know him again.
Brand new Elvis book, Elvis: The Quest for an Oscar, great cover, 536 pages. The book will convince you that Elvis deserves an Oscar for his contributions to the movie industry. Elvis was able to capture the persona of all the characters he played to perfection. The 31 movies that Elvis made always entertained everyone who watched them. Austin Butler will most definitely receive the Oscar for his dynamic performance in “Elvis”. It’s time Hollywood gave Elvis the Oscar he deserves. “Elvis”, the movie you must see, Elvis: The Quest for an Oscar, the book you must read….
@@Floridacoastwriter please explain as to why you think “not this movie”? Austin portrayed Elvis like no actor nor impersonator before him has been able to accomplish! Seriously, he nailed it! The movie may not be an actual account of every little detail of Elvis’ life but a different way of looking at it through Col Tom Parker’s eyes and the challenges they went through during the time of all the censorship’s. I think Baz produced an awesome film which has led to exposing younger people to Elvis’ talents and bringing back those stored memories from his devoted long term fans. I might add that Elvis’ music lives on just like the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s music when we had great ARTISTS with raw and real talent….not like the crap of today where Artists have everything auto tuned, choreographed, etc! Absolutely no Comparison!!
Can't wait for this movie which is a long overdue bio on Elvis. I grew up listening to Elvis and still do at age 76.

@@cassia2229 Thanks.
Can’t wait! My Brother sparred with Elvis in Marshall arts.
Gorgeous talented man
Hello sandra
How are you doing hope you are okay?
Martial ...
@@margaretboehm4485 lol. So glad to see another elvis film. Need something like this in the theaters now. God bless!
Elvis will always be my favorite and this movie looks great from the trailer, but they better treat him like the beautiful man he was, inside and out
Not a big fan of Elvis but I hope they do him right. What he did for rock and roll in bring it to the mainstream every artist since has befitted from. And that alone is worthy of the greatest of respect.
Forever The King!! No one has ever come close, not then and not now! Always LOVED and always MISSED. RIP Elvis..........
That's what John Lennon said essentially.
Do this man justice for this movie! My family grew up with Elvis and we will be damn if this is another flop on Elvis and his life! He is the King of rock and roll! Make him proud!
The actor is not great, seen him in a few movies. The trailer was ok, you are right i hope it doesn't flop like the other Elvis movies. I'm waiting for the official critics reviews before official release.
@@lilyz2156 totally understandable. My dad isn’t gonna see it until he hears about how it did
For me you cant top Kurt Russells version in 1979 'Elvis - The Movie' czcams.com/video/hWeF7RI40v8/video.html
I’m a massive (and discerning) Elvis fan and have gone to tons of Elvis events - week, bday, tribute events, you name it. I’ve always wanted this movie made, but never unless it was going to be made properly in every aspect. I knew and accepted that no one looks enough like Elvis who could also handle the magnitude of a role like this on the big screen, so I don’t don’t fault Austin or the makeup team. What I care more about is the actor studying and understanding to capture Elvis’ essence. This trailer blows me away. It looks like Austin put his whole heart into this, as he should since this is the only way this film could have been made properly. I think and hope he’s done it. Cannot wait to see it this summer. It seems no expense was spared. I hope this brings more millennials and Gen Z into the Elvis fold. ⚡️❤️
Watched the trailer 20 times today
Today 40 times
"It has everything to do with us." I got CHILLS!
Grew up with his music - my first love in music. I still listen to him, will never get tired of hearing him. While no one can truly be as good as he was, I think Austin has done a great job at it.
Oh my .I'm 100% ELVIS FAN.HE.IS. AWESOME
My parents had Elvis Presley's music in their vinyl collection. They especially loved his 70s recordings, when his voice got fuller and deeper.
@@sharonjensen3016 My first albums were Elvis and I still have them.
No one will ever look just like Elvis….but Austin looks good and it feels like he has captured Elvis’ character, the sets and wardrobe are outstanding, I personally cannot wait! 👍😎🔥
Austin doesn’t really look like him but he does him amazing!! Which makes it perfect the mannerisms and everything!
is impossible copy Elvis!
i think he does…
He's the right height, his mouth looks similar to the King's, and, like Elvis, he's a natural blond.
@@user-fp4ir1gi4z His face is too narrow and thin. Elvis had a rounder face and fuller cheeks.
and his eyes weren’t so close together like this guy’s.
"Before Elvis there was nothing. After Elvis, nothing was the same".
absouletly true
I think Freddie mercury is in the same category at least. Two men i would have loved to see live.
Yep I cried I am 57 yo watching this ! Love Elvis he was a generous powerful performer !!
Elvis is the best. He was a great man, funny, smart, nice and very, very cool! Her incredible voice is truly a gift from God. I think this film was born for the future. People can get to know the wonderful story of his life.😍
Can't wait to see this....Before anyone did anything, Elvis did EVERYTHING !!!
The KING of Rock n Roll.
I’m a huge Elvis fan and I’ve been really looking forward to this film. I’ve been fortunate enough to have worked with Baz and Austin in the past, and I’m so hopeful that they caught lightning in a bottle with their respective talents. Baz is a genius “master of ceremonies”director who can deliver a story with as much gusto as he does meticulous detail. I am beyond thrilled that Elvis’ story is being gift-wrapped to us from this man. Austin, with his natural cool calm and genuine good-hearted nature will probably embody what I feel Elvis fans identify with most…Elvis was just a great dude. He had such a generous heart and fun-loving spirit. Elvis blew us away with his staggering talents, sure, but he won our hearts with that spirit. Austin is a great vessel to deliver that back to us Elvis fans. And he’s a volcanic talent about to go off…
While we wait for the movie: czcams.com/video/AhE_9EYxt3s/video.html
Thanks for sharing your insight!
Yes, T-Bone, I believe that Baz has searched for the inner man here in this Movie. The entertainer shines, of course, but watching the trailer myself about 50 times its apparent to me that Baz will take the audience on a deep dive into Elvis, The inner Man. The soul of Elvis if you like. Its a ride I can't wait to take. Bring it ON.
Such beautiful words... If you are not yet a writer, T-Bone - You certainly should be. You have a gift with words!! ~TCB 🌩
The Greatest Entertainer of All Time. The Beginning & The End. RIP Elvis
Baz looks spectacular. The trailer starts on the right foot--Captain Marvel Jr.!!! The first performance literally gave me goosebumps. There are a million ways to get this story wrong, but it looks like they nailed it. Kurt Russell, I love you man, but this movie is going to be breathtaking.
Yes, Elvis took care of business! He loved his fans more than he loved his own life. This movie will tell the good and the bad! 💞
No interest in going back to theatres until this comes along. Sign me up!
RIP and long live The King of Rock and Roll
Elvis Presley (January 8, 1935 - August 16, 1977), aged 42
You will always be remembered as a legend.
This movie will be one we can’t get out of our minds when it’s over. I hope and do believe, this actor will do The King justice. Elvis, you will live in forever, no one could ever forget you… there are generations to come that will be blessed to know who Elvis is!!!!!
As a native Memphian I am so excited about this movie!!!😁❤️🎙️
The problem is that what Elvis made Elvis just can't be doublicated. That iconic face, that smile, the way he walked, talked, stood, sang. His charisma and presence just can't be captured by any other induvidual. What is left is the reproduction of an image, dangerously close to a caricature.
So, with this new movie it will all come down to the story. How good and convincing will it be? Will it get the story right. Will it do Elvis justice? Because all those wanna-bee Elvisses and impersonators have done tremendous harm to the way Elvis is seen these days. As a caricature, a joke, a Las Vegas wedding prop.
His significance as the prophet of modern music, as the guy who didn't invent Rock 'n' Roll from scratch but who blurred the strict segragating line between black and white music and gave it it's attidude. He was the force that made Rock 'n' Roll the cultural, life changing, phenomenon it became is. He kicked down the doors. Without Elvis Rock 'n' Roll would have remained an underground obscurity.
I hope they will get that across...
Freeze frame is showing so caricatural face if Austin as EP:/ I am so sorry for that… only when you freeze the frame you can see that (that face is ugly) what from the distance and very fast watching looks incredibly goog but in that this is a joke
I originally thought of Elvis the way you described as he is being shown as today, a joke and a prop in weddings bc that’s what tv and movies presented him as. But after recently listening to his music and actually visiting both Graceland and Tupelo I can say for a fact this kid ain’t it, I don’t hear the same Elvis and I don’t see the same Elvis because you can’t duplicate a dead man, you can only duplicate what you watch in movies and interviews or secondhand accounts at best. You have to learn from the source to duplicate it bc look at Jamie Foxx’s performance as Ray Charles. It’s a beautiful and crystal clear picture of how Ray was bc Ray was there to fact check and help Jamie along the way. Idk what to expect from this movie but I don’t see and hear Elvis i just see exactly like you said, a caricature of an image and not the real man himself.
You articulated this fairly well, Mate🙌🙌🙌
Awesomely stated!
Soooo right! It's impossible to copy Elvis in a movie but this one looked good i must say
My aunt is a HUGE fan of Elvis. I can't wait for her to know about this.

Oh my Gosh, it was about time for an other Elvis Movie! It's sad how he said no one will remember him? My Gosh, he's a legend. I can't wait to see this, I know it will be phenomenal! I love Elvis, always have.
It's easy to forget now that for a lot of the sixties he was a joke; culture and music and life were all changing and he was looking outdated and old news.
Thankfully, the '68 special and then the next few years reminded everyone that he was the first true rock star and will never be forgotten.
This movie looks like it could be great!
@@WobblyLance When I was 4 I said Elvis was my boyfriend. That was around 1957. In the early 60s the British Invasion swept me off my feet and in the late 60s I was into psychedelic and rock music. I was a young hippie - too young to make it to Woodstock. Elvis was no longer my boyfriend. I didn't dislike him and always had respect for him, but I did think he was old-fashioned and no longer relevant. In fact, if it weren't for this exciting trailer, I probably wouldn't have cared to see another movie about him. Now I can't wait!
Despite me not being a big Elvis fan this film looks absolutely incredible I just hope they do him justice
This looks AMAZING!! "Oh let our love survive..or dry the tears from your eyes" - This was haunting!! I can't wait to see it!! I ❤ Elvis!!
This looks amazing. Huge Elvis fan since I was 12...that's nearly 50 years. And this trailer put a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes. If it is truly a reflection of the entire film...it's going to be truly fit for a KING.
Oh my God! Made me cry! Can't wait for it.
Why do we have to wait until June?I want it released now!!!
I can't wait for this !!!!
I will probably cry all the way through it 🤣

My grandma loved Elvis. One of my earliest memories was Grandma making everyone STOP when Elvis was on TV. Everyone stopped and we watched as Grandma was mesmorized by Elvis. That was 1968 and Grandma was 57 years old.
And two Oscars, go to..... Austin Butler and Tom Hanks!
Perfection!
It looks amazing and will definitely bring Elvis to the attention of a lot of new young fans and remind existing fans just how amazing he was 😀
Everything is a circle, he will gain many new , young fans after the movie for sure. I always liked him, but after this trailer I've become obsessed. Can't wait for this!
That's for sure Allen. Love from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
I cant wait to see this!!! It looks amazing!!! We love you Elvis!!!❤️🔥❤️😱❤️
This looks amazing. Elvis left the building 45 years ago but he still inspires awe. Only post-war America could have produced him.
This dude has stepped into the role of a lifetime.
Jesus H. Christ, I find myself crying after viewing the trailer, I am aged 80. a life-long Elvis fan and I cannot wait to view what seems to be the most accurtate, truthful and verifiable account of the life of the greatest man who ever walked the earth.
Jesus Christ was the greatest man who ever walked this earth!! How ironic that you mentioned Him first 😂
Elvis Presley was a performer and HUMAN
take not the name of the Lord in vain .. I don't think Elvis would like that now ..
@@margaretboehm4485 Thereby hangs a mystery. If Jesus was the greatest man who ever walked the earth, then he was a man, not a god, and if we compare the two, Elvis and Jesus, Elvis had millions of followers, Jesus 12, one of whom betrayed him, one was crucified and the other 10 disappeared into oblivion, no one knows what happened to them! My question to you is, how much of Jesus was God? Think carefully.
@@redskywalker3374 Which Lord is that? A Lord is a British aristocrat usually living in a Manor house and enjoying a privileged existence. Maybe you are referring to Lord Lucan, he disappeared from the face of the earth and was never seen again just like Yahweh-bar-Joseph.
@@thomashall9182 Jesus Christ was fully man and fully God. That is difficult for us to understand. He had many followers, however 12 disciples. He has many millions of followers today from all nations.
Elvis was a wonderful singer and seemed like a very nice person, he had a faith in God also. I love his gospel songs. But don't put another human on a pedestal, they have always toppled off!! 😊
Enjoy Elvis music as I do 👍
You know this film already is going to win awards and will be a masterpiece from the director to Tom hanks every elvis fan will look forward to this especially me
The trailer is fantastic..gave me chills as everything about it says THE KING OF ROCK AND ROLL...I personally think it's beautiful and can't wait to watch the film..this could be the one, I've waited to see on Elvis all my life..Sure Austin Butler doesn't totally look like him, I mean who does..but it seems he managed to capture Elvis's spirit. There are times during the trailer where I'm just blown away by his movements, the voice, walk and to how similar he does look in some of the scenes and I've watched this trailer over 20 times now..I cried I felt like this really could be the film that Elvis and his fans deserve..

Why thank you....thank you very much.
check out Ben Portsmouth
King of Rock n Roll??...smh ok
@ Prince Luv Here's me smh at someone's need to get technical over two terms that can and do both convey the exact same thing...But there is always going to be someone out there that feels the need to do things like that..so okay...whatever...😊
This is so damn amazing, there is something divine about Elvis, this made me so emotional, holy. This one is really good it seems.

I don’t listen to ELVIS often but when I do, so do the neighbors!!
Been waiting for a new Elvis movie. Been an Elvis fan since I was little thanks to my grandmother. They should do another Johnny Cash movie as well.
Thank God Elvis' voice is used in the songs,....no substitute 😎
Hello judith
How are you doing hope you are okay?
Sorry to tell you Judith, but Austin Butler does the Young Elvis. The real Elvis singing songs start around the times of the "Singer Special" in 1968. But have no fear, Butler does sound very much like our man. Butler also took lessons for 12 months to get the accuracy of the phrasing in the songs right. Hope your surprised by this info Judith. I have viewed the trailer 50 times at least, and still I am amazed by what Baz has done here.
@@TERRYMism the trailer I watched was Elvis, no mistake. Still, I hope you're right about Austin 😊
I am blown away by the authenticity of this movie. The smallest of details have been inserted. Guitars, real estate signs, the instruments of his tour musicians, clothes, cars etc. I am 70 and a huge Elvis fan from Memphis. For those of you who are negative, nothin will ever please you and that’s OK. I’m going to see the movie, it looks great
I have noticed more details the longer I study the trailer. Every one of the details I have noticed typically never fails to blow me away. What is blowing me away the most is how much work Austin must have put into the role to get the small details I am noticing in his performance. The walk, the way he would quickly move his shoulder, the facial expressions, the stage moves, down to even the way he would hold the mic in his left hand at moments in a song like POLK SALAD ANNIE for instance. That was something I happened to notice last night which blew me away.
This may legit be the greatest trailer in history. This movie is going to be a monster.
Its gonna be an OSCAR....
It is truly a great trailer.
Nope
God, I hope this movie is as good as it looks. I can't wait to see this and for a brief moment Elvis will be here again. I hope he is smiling from heaven and saying, " You ain't seen noth'n yet!"
It’s about time that Elvis got some recognition
I've recently been on an "Elvis" binge, all the while a biopic was in the making, how ironic!❤😎
