Jacob Elordi & Cailee Spaeny Interview: Priscilla and Elvis

Sofia Coppola’s eighth feature, Priscilla, opens the door to the home of a very young Priscilla Presley and rock and roll icon, Elvis. Based on Priscilla’s memoir, Elvis and Me, the A24 film presents the tumultuous relationship between the singer and his then-14-year-old girlfriend, with the lens focused on how she stepped from obscurity and into Graceland. To portray the couple, Coppola enlisted Euphoria’s Jacob Elordi as Elvis and Cailee Spaeny (Mare of Easstown) as the film’s star. While promoting the movie, the two spoke with Collider’s Steve Weintraub about working with Sofia Coppola and understanding their roles.
Before Priscilla was known for her big dark hair and dramatic eyes, she was a young girl growing up in West Germany, where her family was stationed. Under her stylized direction, Coppola tracks the relationship from when Priscilla first meets Elvis at a party to their eventual divorce in 1972, taking care to highlight the toxicity of the relationship and the abuse and infidelities that marred the glamorous front the couple presented to the world. The movie also features Rodrigo Fernandez-Stoll, Emily Mitchell, Tim Post, Jorja Cadence, and more.
During their chat, Elordi and Spaeny tell Weintraub and his cats about the emotional roller coaster of getting the opportunity to work with Sofia Coppola. They discuss marking off one of their dream collaborators from the list, the most surprising things they learned while researching Elvis and Priscilla Presley, and why one brief scene shocked Elordi with how challenging it was to film.
