We chat with AgentElvis showrunners Mike Arnold & JohnEddieMusic about Matthew McConaughey's voice, avoiding cheap Elvis jokes, and honoring the King:
The legendary life of Elvis Presley gets a delightfully bizarre animated adaptation with the Netflix original series, Agent Elvis. The highly fictionalized show begins in 1968 and envisions a world where Elvis moonlights as a vigilante, catching the attention of The Central Bureau, a mysterious spy organization. Elvis begins to work with TCB, completing top-secret missions while uncovering a conspiracy that stretches back to his days in the Army.
John Eddie: I'm, probably like you, a lifelong Elvis fan. I'm a musician and a songwriter. I first met Priscilla because I did two tours opening up for Lisa Marie when she had her first couple of albums out. I got to be friends with Lisa Marie and Priscilla. Screen Rant: Tell me about getting Matthew, because he's not even trying to do an Elvis voice, but that's probably for the best!
Screen Rant: I definitely appreciate what the show does, and what the movie did last year, in shining a light on the early 70s in particular, like his first residency at the International Hotel. It's nice to see this particular era of Elvis getting its due.
