Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis Presley biopic, starring Tom Hanks as Colonel Tom Parker and Austin Butler as Elvis Presley, will finally hit cinemas on 24 June 2022. Here, take a look at the first teaser.

Nearly a decade after rumours of an Elvis Presley biopic first began floating around Hollywood, Baz Luhrmann’s movie will finally hit cinemas on 24 June 2022. The Australian director confirmed the release date – and dropped a first clip of Austin Butler in action – on 15 November. While you wait for the full trailer, here’s a recap of what to expect from the drama.

Elvis’s relationship with his long-time manager Colonel Tom Parker will take precedence over his marriage Tom Hanks will appear as Elvis’s manager, a former carnival worker who launched the King’s career in the mid-’50s by negotiating a contract for him at RCA – ultimately staying with Elvis until his death in 1977. From the release of Elvis’s first hit single “Heartbreak Hotel” onward, Parker had a vice-like grip over the musician – taking a significant cut of his royalties and influencing every one of his professional decisions as well as his personal ones .

Elvis with Priscilla on their wedding day in 1967, which Parker encouraged for the sake of publicity.Despite the distinctly American storyline, filming happened largely in Queensland rather than Graceland Graceland, Elvis’s Memphis, Tennessee, estate, remains one of the most visited private homes in America more than 50 years after the King’s death. According to reports, Luhrmann fully recreated the Colonial Revival mansion in a Queensland studio, along with the sets for Elvis’s Las Vegas performances in the late ’60s and early ’70s.
