There is no explaining this kid's unbelievable performance. It's as if Elvis himself had stepped into his body. Honestly the whole performance by Austin Butler gave me goosebumps. Watching him on that screen felt surreal. I have never seen an actor so fully embody the spirit of the character he was portraying. Words to explain this kid's portrayal of Elvis are inadequate. Truly astonishing.
@@thundertwonk2250 LOL....Yes I was aware he was 30 years old, well in fact 31 now as you state. However, you have to admit he looks so much younger, and to an old timer like me he is definitely a kid. Cheers, thanks for your reply.
I agree He was amazing! AMAZING! I have to say that last year Andrew Garfield did the same thing for Jonathan Larson. He WAS Larson. The scenes where Butler is singing are amazing and Oscar-worthy! I will watch it again fast-forwarding to the rest....!
Elvis è sempre stato sfruttato da tutti ma mai compreso ed amato veramente tranne i suoi genitori. Qsta volta idem....solo business ed un ennesimo tentativo di imitarlo. Tentativo fallito. Chi conosce bene ed ama Elvis non può assolutamente apprezzare un film così.....trucco pessimo....canzoni pessime cantate da Austin......proprio un flop.

@@SuspiciousMind28 He didn't sing though. Phoenix and austin literally sang in their films, so dod Taron egerton who to me crushed elton john in rocketman. To me thats the bar, austin butler and phonix come in second in my opinion.
@Alex Eddy yes, I knew that and knew someone would point that out. It does put Austin in much higher standards since he sang the songs and sounded so much like Elvis.
This was a phenomenal movie! Always enjoy the behind the scenes portions. Austin did the most fantastic job on Elvis. Love his work ethic and commitment to "Getting it Right"~ Everyone had a combined effort in this film. Everyone was so good in this movie. Thanks to Baz and all involved in making this movie. I'm hopeful for Academy Awards for this film and Austin! 🥰💗
@@lauraverbruggen1027 I'm sure he got much more...he has an agent and manager. If he did only get $200 000, then I'm sure he's fine with that. Regardless, how would you know that, and what's your point in commenting this?

All the best.
Austin Butler is phenomenal! I instantly fell in love with his performance and him! I still can't believe he did not win the Oscar, shame on the academy awards!
Baz is something. Aint no tellin' how many times I'll watch this extraordinary film. Cried at least 10 times. I loved the real Elvis so much. He was like a drug. I'd have a miserable work shift and one song could instantly change my state of mind. Austin was amazing, especially in the closet. I was there grieving the loss of all our mothers. OMG--Tom Hanks!
I love this movie I cnt lie it’s amazing. And it shows how he grew up on my music gospel music blues black music. And it shows how even white peoples couldn’t stand him cuz he stayed true to hisself. I cnt stand the colonel
@@datboykrazy8616 u r right, I love by his movie so far I have seen it 10 times at the big screen CINEMA theatre, attention to detail is Amazing, cloths songs voice historical events set design actors even resemble the people they were playing, OSCOR FOR AUSTIN, TOM HANKS , BAZ, CATHERINE MARTIN SET DESIGNER CLOTHS AND COSTUME, OSCOR FOR TGE AUSTRALIAN LADY WHO PLAYED ELVIS MUM LINDA THOMSON, OSCORS GALLORE THE MOVIE IS SENSATIONAL BRILLIANT AWESOME ARTISTIC AMAZING 🥰fr.Australia
Austin Butler Amazing amazing actor I have never seen such a real emotional delivery that I managed to live that time for more than 02:30 minutes dancing singing acting with faces and mouths and visceral expressions a spectacle of acting Elvis Presley deserves this star that appeared in the cinema.
I loved Elvis so much when I was a kid (14, the same age as Priscilla). I'm too old for this but I'm falling in love with Austin as Elvis; he's bringing back so much of that same feeling. I don't quite know what he is going to do after this incredible performance, but I hope he wins all the awards and has a long and successful career. Thank you, Austin.
This performance by Austin makes me miss elvis so much. I see Elvis face now and I just smile. Austin has got what it takes to be a superstar. But maybe being a really great actor is enough. But people are crazy for Austin now too. Not sure what's going on. I've seen it 5 times. Austin created something people want to love and they do!
Well, I hope not. I've watched Shannara a few years ago just because of him and only went to Elvis because of him. I hope there will be muuuuch more life experinces for him...
This movie is one of the best movies that I've ever seen and I've always watch it with goosebumps all over my body. Austin Butler nailed it!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Austin Butler is not just exceptional.... He's miraculous...!!!! There's NO WAY that ANYONE could have played this part but him..,. And then there's Austin himself!!!!! What a great guy ... So down to earth. WoW. WoW. WoW!!!! Now I know why Lisa Marie needed 5 days just to wrap her head around this performance. Thank God she got to see this day before her precious life ended so tragically....... 😌😌💯💕🙌💔💔
When Elvis IS your Guardian Angel. I'm pretty sure he helped, influenced & will continue to shine thru Austin, reminding his fans that he's watching over them, loves them, & is waiting for everyone of us on the other side. Me: Seriously cried just watching the movie trailer. What amazing talent, and channeling, of such a momentous persona. Make's your heart jar around to see this film.
This is the project that Austin was waiting that's why he did his Best. His Big Break!! And he nailed it!!! Oscar worthy performance. Kudos👏 He gave justice to the real-life story of G.O.A.T, The King of Rock N' Roll -Elvis Presley
It’s almost as though Elvis was reborn in Austin!! Nobody’s ever been able to be Elvis like him!! He talks, looks, sings, dances, etc!! He wasn’t impersonating him, he was ELVIS!!
This movie is going down in the books as a classic IMO… Austin Butler better get ready to shoot to the stars!! It’s coming for him… It’s a movie I’d watch over and over..
Me too ladies! And I really hope Austin, Tom, Baz, his wife costume designer Catherine Martin, and the rest of the cast win awards next year at the Oscars🤞 they truly deserve it for their OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCES and work ethic on this ASTONISHING and SPECTACULAR PROJECT!! 👏👏👏👏👏
When I think about it, there hasn't been another Elvis, as a Southerner, we really felt like he was one of us through and through, no one else has managed to totally bring tunes to life like Elvis did. Elvis was ripping things all to pieces and he knew it, when I think about it, he was the life-breath of Rock-n-roll, and though there have been extreme greats, like Eddie Van Halen, in his wake, no one has managed to be quite as Electrifying as Elvis was.
I’ve got to admit I was hesitant on watching this movie as I have seen a lot of biopics based on the legend that is the king only to be let down by the actor’s performance. However I had promised to take my mum to see this and I’m so glad I did. BEST MOVIE OF 2022 BY FAR. Well done Austin for your golden globe. A truly deserved win in my opinion ❤️
I have grown up as performer in a family of Elvis fans. I have watched every movie of the King. And this is the first time I saw him portrayed not as the “character“ of Elvis but as the true man he was. This is the definitive Elvis film. And it shows the world who he really was
Well said! Like you, I grew up in a family of devoted Elvis fans. My dad played all the Elvis albums for me, and sang his songs to me, from the time I was born. He he taught me how to slow dance for my first HS dance to I Can’t Help Falling in Love With You. My parents got me to sit and watch every Elvis movie with them when they came on broadcast TV (usually Sunday afternoons). I’ve seen most of the Elvis movie performances by various actors and thought Kurt Russell’s would forever be the gold standard. Austin Butler proved my thinking wrong. What a revelation! I was riveted and mesmerized by AB every second he was on the screen. It didn’t take long for me to forget I was watching an actor (and not Elvis). Spectacular performance! He so deserves to win the Oscar. 🤞
My 6th grade math teacher would only allow Elvis music in her room, and if we were to have a movie day, it was only an Elvis movie and as six graders We never really understood as to why we had to listen to his music and watch his movies, but she would always tell us how just spontaneous and soulful this man was. I looked deeper into him, and I grew a spot in my heart for his music and his movies. I’ve became a fan of him so when I heard that they were making a movie, I was pretty excited, I knew enough that I would be intrigued by what they would create. The film was absolutely phenomenal. Austin Bulter played that role like it was his life. His performance was just Amazing. I can’t express the chills that I got from this movie and I know as a young adult most of my peers wouldn’t really look into listening to Elvis, but this man was just so raw and talented. For Austin Butler to go into this film and just blow it out the park hit a home run. It was just .. Its leaving me speechless.
happy birthday Baz! (September 17) WOW I can’t believe you’re 60!! Thank you, thank you very much for creating this PHENOMENAL movie!!! You are super creative, inspiring, and such an ABSOLUTE GENIUS!! HBD man! 🥳🎂🥂🎈 TCB⚡️
If Elvis should come out today he'd still be like an alien landing, he was out of this world nothing today could even come close to his talents. God sent him as a messenger
I’m going bananas I haven’t seen Elvis yet. When can I see this beautiful actor portraying him. Austen you deserve an Oscar I’ve only seen bits of you on u tube. I want to see you all!❤
This masterpiece made me travel to 8 cinemas to watch it from july to september. Baz is a stunning director that made me fell in love with all his characters and rediscover Elvis in many different lights and shades. Please release the 4 -hour-version!!
Austin butler deserves all the praise he’s getting, but damn, Tom Hanks has been so good for so long, that people are barely talking about how you forgot it was Tom Hanks.
Austin must win the Oscar for his extraordinary performance of Elvis! If God forbid he doesn’t, we’re all going full throttle Kanye on the academy, deal?!!!!!
Completamente d acuerdo Austin Butler se merece todos los premios por tan estraorinario trabajo que hizo al interpretar al gran rey d el rok nos lo trajo d regreso magnífica película gracias Baz lurhman gracias a Austin Butler m recordó mi niñez cuando su música llegó a México amo la película a Elvis y a Austin 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️todos los premios a esta maravillosa película
From the first moment of the movie, I was hooked. It felt like I was watching Elvis, going thru the ups and downs of his life with him. I watched elvis in his movies, bought his records, saw the special and then we also saw him in Vegas! I know what elvis looked and sounded like. Baz and Austin created a new face, a handsome face, not Austin's face but closer to elvis face. They put in clips of real elvis to prove how close Austin came to real elvis. When we left the theater I was really shocked and said I've got to go back and see this again! I looked on RUclips for Austin Butler and realized I knew him from nick at nite and icarley, all the teen shows my grandchildren watched ten years ago. Yes Austin was beautiful back then, too.
Oh my Godddddddd is all I can say 😍😍😍 obsessed 😍…..ahhhhh Elvis still remains the greatest music entertainer that ever lived hands down and Austin nailed him exceptionally..dem legs can move…wow….just wow 🤩
I can't agree more. Even my 14 year old daughter has watched it over 80 times and knows all the words. I know 14.. The whole film and Austin blows all other films out of the park. Best film I've ever seen and I love crashing in on my daughter while she's watching it. Although she kicks me out as she doesn't like me watching her speak the words. Magical movie 🙏💖
Excelente trabajo de Austin Butler. Realmente cómo ha trabajado a Elvis es impresionante. Mucho trabajo del actor y el equipo ha dado este impresionante resultado
I watched this film last weekend and just can not get it out of my head. I definitely have a new found appreciation for Elvis as an artist and subversive figure, something that is probably overlooked due to his Vegas legacy and that endearing cliche, which is unfortunate, because he was obviously so much more. And Austin Butler...is just...no words. So brilliant. So talented. And so so sexy as Elvis. He pulled it off. That first scene where the women go wild. It seems so real, it makes you feel like you were right there in that moment, you feel that magnetic pull and effect Elvis had on people. The only weak point for me is Tom Hanks. Although, I usually love him. His performance just felt like it belonged in another film. And not wanting to end on a negative note, the music blew me away. I was literally dancing in my seat, so you can really really tell that these people are legit and accomplished musicians. The music held it all together and for me was a huge part of the narrative, so well done Baz! Mission accomplished.
GOOD LUCK TO THE FILM THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER ELVIS NOBODY HIS AS BEAUTIFUL AS MY ELVIS YOU ARE ALWAYS IN MY HEART ❤♥ 💖 💙 💗 💕❤♥❤❤♥❤❤♥❤❤♥❤❤♥❤❤♥ ❤ ❤♥ MY BEAUTIFUL ELVIS MARGO ❤
I can't wait to see this film... From what Im hearing and seeing so far its sounds like an Oscar winning film on many levels. Just watching this piece on the making of this film it shows everyone' passion and commitment to honoring the story of Elvis and the music of that time.
By no means was it perfect,to you people that didn't watch kirt Russell as elvis, check him out and imagine him young again,that was close to Elvis I've ever seen in a movie.
I was really taken aback by how remarkable the musical performances were. Hollywood seldom gets the spirit of black culture and black music but seeing that relationship unfold through Austin’s performance was truly magical. All of that to say, he nailed it.
Finally!, someone who does an amazing portrayal of The King in such an excellent film. I was hesitant about watching this movie because playing Elvis in a movie it’s so difficult. First of all, Elvis was freaking handsome and charismatic and that right there it’s a big challenge. Then his voice and his body movements and you don’t want to bring an impersonator to play Elvis. You need a real actor. Now, Austin is a handsome man but not quite like Elvis but he makes you get into it and it’s so enjoyable watching him in his role. This is a GREAT movie and deserves recognition from the Academy. Best Movie, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, at least. Elvis Never Dies.
This movie is the best that I have ever seen. Austin Butler was phenomenal. The film and the actors should have walked away with every award available including the Oscars. They were so robbed. I have watched this movie so many times and am always amazed at the talent involved. It never gets tired. Love it, love it, love it.
the fact they are making a new film with a different actor playing elvis I feel is insulting. Austin put his heart and soul into this role and deserves all and every award for his performance.
Given how Austin trained and immersed himself in Elvis, as well as given things Austin has said in interviews, I honestly think at times he was channeling Elvis.
There is no explaining this kid's unbelievable performance. It's as if Elvis himself had stepped into his body. Honestly the whole performance by Austin Butler gave me goosebumps. Watching him on that screen felt surreal. I have never seen an actor so fully embody the spirit of the character he was portraying. Words to explain this kid's portrayal of Elvis are inadequate. Truly astonishing.
Yes your words are how I feel too.
Kid? He's 31 years old lol but yeah amazing performance
@@thundertwonk2250 LOL....Yes I was aware he was 30 years old, well in fact 31 now as you state. However, you have to admit he looks so much younger, and to an old timer like me he is definitely a kid. Cheers, thanks for your reply.

@@andrewmiller4885 I tend to agree he's still a baby to me. He has a very youthful look.
Austin Butler should collect ALL the awards for this performance.
I agree he did a great tribute to Elvis . In my opinion he should win the acedemy award
Austin Butler’s portrayal of Elvis Presley blows Kurt Russell’s portrayal in the 1979 TV movie out of the water.
Solo business.....chi ama veramente Elvis mi comprende bene
Elvis è sempre stato sfruttato da tutti ma mai compreso ed amato veramente tranne i suoi genitori.
Qsta volta idem....solo business ed un ennesimo tentativo di imitarlo.
Tentativo fallito.
Chi conosce bene ed ama Elvis non può assolutamente apprezzare un film così.....trucco pessimo....canzoni pessime cantate da Austin......proprio un flop.
Che poi sia piaciuto a molti non vuol dire niente.....anzi....vuol solo ribadire che non è mai stato compreso a fondo.
I would like an Oscar sweep.......it is an extraordinary film on so may levels. Austin rocked it. So happy for him.
I don't think we have ever seen a performer portrayed this brilliantly before. Austin Butler is astonishing.
I mean… joaquin phoenix as Johnny Cash was a pretty phenomenal performance lol.
I have to say Rami Malik won an Oscar and Golden Globe for his amazing portrayal of Freddie Mercury.
Pretty incredible, I’d say on-par with Jamie Foxx as Ray Charles as the best of the best
@@SuspiciousMind28 He didn't sing though. Phoenix and austin literally sang in their films, so dod Taron egerton who to me crushed elton john in rocketman. To me thats the bar, austin butler and phonix come in second in my opinion.
@Alex Eddy yes, I knew that and knew someone would point that out. It does put Austin in much higher standards since he sang the songs and sounded so much like Elvis.
They worked so hard and they created a masterpiece. One of the best movies I have ever seen. I can watch it a lot of times without getting tired

Austin butler deserves all the praise he’s getting, but damn, Tom Hanks has been so good for so long, that people are barely talking about how you forgot it was Tom Hanks.
Austin gave his absolute all!!! Really hope he gets some nominations and wins.
If Austin doesn’t win an Oscar, I’m jumping on that stage and I’m going go full Kanye.
Haha yes!!!!!
Austin must win the Oscar for his extraordinary performance of Elvis! If God forbid he doesn’t, we’re all going full throttle Kanye on the academy, deal?!!!!!
@@jeanniepulice6831 yep, if he doesn't get it we will riot!!!
Well…
Austin un gran actor se merece el Oscar como ningun otro , un gran idolo, lo amo
Ich würde sagen: Von allen Elvis Biographien, ist das der Beste Film den ich über Elvis gesehen habe!
THANK U BAZ LURHMANN! THANK U AUSTIN BUTLER! THANK U AUSTRALIA! BEST MOVIE EVER!
OSCAR'S GALLORE!

I feel joy when Elvis Austin in the movie go against the ways and convintion of the society... in this set.... 😘😜

From the first moment of the movie, I was hooked. It felt like I was watching Elvis, going thru the ups and downs of his life with him. I watched elvis in his movies, bought his records, saw the special and then we also saw him in Vegas! I know what elvis looked and sounded like. Baz and Austin created a new face, a handsome face, not Austin's face but closer to elvis face. They put in clips of real elvis to prove how close Austin came to real elvis. When we left the theater I was really shocked and said I've got to go back and see this again! I looked on RUclips for Austin Butler and realized I knew him from nick at nite and icarley, all the teen shows my grandchildren watched ten years ago. Yes Austin was beautiful back then, too.
I lost all my words after seeing this movie three times. Brilliant isn't enough
Oh my Godddddddd
is all I can say 😍😍😍 obsessed 😍…..ahhhhh
Elvis still remains the greatest music entertainer that ever lived hands down and Austin nailed him exceptionally..dem legs can move…wow….just wow 🤩
I can't agree more. Even my 14 year old daughter has watched it over 80 times and knows all the words. I know 14.. The whole film and Austin blows all other films out of the park. Best film I've ever seen and I love crashing in on my daughter while she's watching it. Although she kicks me out as she doesn't like me watching her speak the words. Magical movie 🙏💖
watched twice already... very good to great acting performance....
Excelente trabajo de Austin Butler. Realmente cómo ha trabajado a Elvis es impresionante. Mucho trabajo del actor y el equipo ha dado este impresionante resultado
Austin you are so amazing. Thank you for bringing an icon back to life. ❤❤❤
He awesome interpratation elvis this amazing moments this movie thank you austin butler and beautiful man and amazing moove this voice exactly wow
I watched this film last weekend and just can not get it out of my head. I definitely have a new found appreciation for Elvis as an artist and subversive figure, something that is probably overlooked due to his Vegas legacy and that endearing cliche, which is unfortunate, because he was obviously so much more.
And Austin Butler...is just...no words. So brilliant. So talented. And so so sexy as Elvis. He pulled it off. That first scene where the women go wild. It seems so real, it makes you feel like you were right there in that moment, you feel that magnetic pull and effect Elvis had on people. The only weak point for me is Tom Hanks. Although, I usually love him. His performance just felt like it belonged in another film. And not wanting to end on a negative note, the music blew me away. I was literally dancing in my seat, so you can really really tell that these people are legit and accomplished musicians. The music held it all together and for me was a huge part of the narrative, so well done Baz! Mission accomplished.
A performance de Austin é incrível!! Que voz é essa minha gente!! Acho q deveria ficar de cabelo escuro!! 😍
GOOD LUCK TO THE FILM THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER ELVIS NOBODY HIS AS BEAUTIFUL AS MY ELVIS YOU ARE ALWAYS IN MY HEART ❤♥ 💖 💙 💗 💕❤♥❤❤♥❤❤♥❤❤♥❤❤♥❤❤♥ ❤ ❤♥ MY BEAUTIFUL ELVIS MARGO ❤
Thank you so much Baz for this great great movie. 👏👏👏
Austin did an phenomenal job.
All actors were so great.
"Elvis" is a masterpiece.
❤❤❤❤❤❤The King of Rock of Roll . This movie what and amazing actor !!!!!!! I was amazed. Thanks ❤❤❤❤ Puerto Rico. Gracias. Sarah ROSADO
Austin butler 😍😍🥰👌👌👌
Speechless 💖💖💖💖💖 they did a great job on this movie
I can't wait to see this film... From what Im hearing and seeing so far its sounds like an Oscar winning film on many levels. Just watching this piece on the making of this film it shows everyone' passion and commitment to honoring the story of Elvis and the music of that time.
Increíble esa película, maravillosa y el actor que protagonizó a Elvis se lucio 👏👏👏❤
Perfection♥️👍
By no means was it perfect,to you people that didn't watch kirt Russell as elvis, check him out and imagine him young again,that was close to Elvis I've ever seen in a movie.
I was really taken aback by how remarkable the musical performances were. Hollywood seldom gets the spirit of black culture and black music but seeing that relationship unfold through Austin’s performance was truly magical. All of that to say, he nailed it.
Awesome 🤩 I love the movie. I hope Austin gets an Oscar
I learned the range of music with Elvis when i had 13 years old.
Finally!, someone who does an amazing portrayal of The King in such an excellent film. I was hesitant about watching this movie because playing Elvis in a movie it’s so difficult. First of all, Elvis was freaking handsome and charismatic and that right there it’s a big challenge. Then his voice and his body movements and you don’t want to bring an impersonator to play Elvis. You need a real actor.
Now, Austin is a handsome man but not quite like Elvis but he makes you get into it and it’s so enjoyable watching him in his role.
This is a GREAT movie and deserves recognition from the Academy. Best Movie, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, at least.
Elvis Never Dies.
Such an incridible talent this guy has the king reincarnate in him simply wow 👏💖 🤴amazing austin butler
I love this movie i see this movie all 5 times
This is the best movie I've ever seen!!!!!! LOVED, LOVED, LOVED this movie.
hope he continues to play elvis and sing elvis. he is so perfect and the world needs more elvis
This movie is the best that I have ever seen. Austin Butler was phenomenal. The film and the actors should have walked away with every award available including the Oscars. They were so robbed. I have watched this movie so many times and am always amazed at the talent involved. It never gets tired. Love it, love it, love it.
the fact they are making a new film with a different actor playing elvis I feel is insulting. Austin put his heart and soul into this role and deserves all and every award for his performance.
This should be the LAST and Elvis movie. Its thAt good. Its historic!
Bruh if there is a new actor for Elvis it’s not gonna be as good as this one I swear
There gonna make another one after this one!?
Pure Genius😘
Given how Austin trained and immersed himself in Elvis, as well as given things Austin has said in interviews, I honestly think at times he was channeling Elvis.
Loved this! Would love to also see a reel of outtakes and the 4-hour version of the movie! More, more, more!!!❤❤❤
The way he moved made me squeak in my seat at the movies
