Priscilla Presley and Lisa Marie Presley have given their seal of approval to the highly anticipated ‘Elvis’ movie, revealing that they are both excited and emotional about the upcoming project directed by Baz Luhrmann.

“I relived every moment in this film. It took me a few days to overcome the emotions as it did with Lisa. Beautifully done Baz, Tom, Austin, and Olivia,” Priscilla shared.
Fans of the music legend have shared their excitement to finally see the movie, and even more after seeing Austin Butler, who portrays Elvis in the upcoming biopic, walking the red carpet of the 2022 Met Gala with Priscilla.

This is also not the first time Priscilla shares her thoughts on the film, previously describing Austin’s performance as “outstanding” and praising Tom Hanks for embodying the role of Elvis’ manager, Colonel Tom Parker.
“It is a true story told brilliantly and creatively that only Baz, in his unique artistic way, could have delivered,” Priscilla wrote.
