How does Priscilla star Jacob Elordi stack up against Austin Butler, Kurt Russell, Bruce Campbell and other actors who tried to capture The King?
When Sofia Coppola’s new biopic Priscilla opens in theaters on November 3, Jacob Elordi will be joining an elite club of actors who have had the privilege of playing Elvis Presley on screen. The numerous fictional depictions of The King run the gamut in terms of authenticity, believability, and entertainment value. Which isn’t surprising, considering that the pitfalls of playing the charismatic superstar are perhaps more pronounced than for any other music icon.
Since the production didn’t have the rights to Elvis’ musical catalog, the stage performances in Priscilla are sparse. Instead, the film focuses more on the man than the myth, through the lens of his relationship with the woman who became his wife and the mother of his daughter. We get to see what he was like behind closed doors, and it isn’t always a flattering portrait.
