That last answer from Austin was long winded and he knew it and he got so embarrassed at himself. And the two ladies encouraging him and telling him he did a good answer was so cute!

He is a very cute youthful man and being connected now to wonderful elvis is quite something for him. Brad Pitt was very cute and has stayed that way into his 50 s. But he never had to immerse himself into a living icon. I hope Austin can shake off elvis as time goes on. There's no way any other role will be as meaningful as this one is to him.

Can’t get over how good he was as elvis

His body language at the end is so endearing. You never really see celebrities do that.

Love that he mentioned how ppl say he doesn’t look like Elvis. I know this interview is a few weeks old but I think it’s safe to say, anyone who says he was the wrong casting has yet to see the film. I think nearly everyone who has seen the film now can agree that Austin captured Elvis sooo damn well. He was absolutely amazing.

Wow it was good to hear Austin bring up the people that say he doesn't look enough like Elvis. I belong to a lot of Elvis groups on Facebook and there are still people complaining about that. My comment I always put when someone says, "No, he doesn't look like Elvis, they should have gotten an impersonator." My response is that: I think Austin's heart, soul, character, humbleness, talent, respect, manners, and spirit look a lot like Elvis, and that I'm grateful we have someone who dedicated everything he had and every hour of each day for over 2 years to give Elvis his due, and to honor him through his performance, and all "you" can think is that "they should have gotten an impersonator," which says that physical appearance is absolutely the only reason you are an Elvis fan, when Elvis was so much more than just his physical appearance.

There is a scene where it switches back and forth a couple times between Elvis and Austin singing, when Priscilla saw this she ask the director if it was Austin or Elvis singing and he said both , so in my opinion he looked exactly like him later on in the film the only way I could tell the apart was the shape of Austin’s eyes . That being said he did so good at getting down his movements , facial expressions and voice

It is true Austin didn’t look exactly like Elvis, but in the midst of watching the movie, I actually didn’t notice! He moved, emoted, and sounded just like Elvis and I felt like I was watching Elvis in real life. It’s only now watching snippets over and over that I notice that he didn’t look quite like Elvis . So, Austin, he did an awesome job. He accomplished what he wanted to do with the role, “capture Elvis’ humanity”. All I know is, emotionally, I was watching Elvis on the big screen. Not Austin.

The best movie i have seen in a long time. Austin Butler was fantastic as Elvis. Another great movie from Baz Luhrmann. This is just the beginning from Austin..

people have to understand that looks is half the battle. you have to be able to act, adapt, and have drive. and even denzel himself said austin had drive and there’s no possible way the film could’ve been done better

I love that they have both played characters that are so iconic and yet both still very humble, lovely to see.

Austin was just Amazing! In the film. He was meant to have the role. Austin just nails it all the way. I recommend everyone to see this Beautiful! and Fantastic! film.

the last question he got embarrassed awn he did so good

It's amazing how characterization and acting changes everything, when we're seeing Austin and Olivia in interviews, we can't imagine that they're Elvis and Priscilla from the movie, (except for Austin's voice, of course) that's amazing!

So cute how he keeps rocking his chair and she keeps trying to stop him 😂

Aw, that part at the end was so cute. He was so embarassed, but Olivia and the interviewer were so sweet to him about it. Austin is so adorably cute! I adore him and he has made me an even bigger fan of Elvis. I'm OBSESSED.

Austin ____& Olvia❤❤

I also think the whole “he doesn’t look like Elvis” thing is highly variable and depends a LOT on your age and how much you cared about Elvis before this movie. As a millennial, I thought he looked pretty similar to Elvis, but I’m sure that’s bc I didn’t grow up with Elvis as a living person/celebrity. I mean, no one is going to look exactly like another person, but he was certainly close enough.

Kurt Russell looks nothjng like elvis and Kurt is not a tall man like elvis and Austin are. Kurt had his own personality to overcome and become elvis and he couldn't do it. I though his portrayal of elvis was a big fail. I like Kurt but he is always Kurt, like Tom cruise is always Tom. Denzel says there are performers (Kurt) and there are actors (Austin, Tom Hanks).

He acted like elvis, he sounded like elvis and sang like him. All they had to do was the right hair, the clothes, the moves, and suddenly you forget his face is not a complete replica of elvis. It would creep be out if they did that.

I just saw the movie on Friday!! It was amazing, I 10/10 highly recommended to go see it. Wonderful job Austin butler, Olivia Dejonge and the director and other cast members!! Great job

I lke the Denzel connection: Tom Hanks with him in 'Philadelphia" and Austin being reccomended by him for 'Elvis'.

Austin is a massive talent, he became Elvis, such a brilliant, passionate and magnetic delivery. He is so sweet, shy and gentle, and wise beyond his years.

Give this dedicated young man an OSCOR! He put his heart soul and two years living in Australia working to perfect Elvis! Job well done! Looked song moved like Elvis!

I agree. True fans who grew up on elvis concerts and movies, etc love this movie. Young people of the internet cgi age think you can do some magic and transform someone's face into a fake Elvis. I'm so sick of them. Their opinions and reviews are meaningless.

Rocket man, Tick Tick Boom! and Elvis are 3 of my fav musical films in the past couple years or 3 lol 💚

If I ever had a chance to speak through to the other side to Elvis, I would say " If you ever did say, " I've never sung a lasting song, I won't ever be remembered " .... buddy you were so wrong ! " ...

I think when it comes to Elvis, there is always the "How Dare You Factor". Meaning, anybody who even comes near to portraying him is accused of wanting to be him. Elvis has a Jesus-like status, especially, in the Elvis fan community, with a sign "DON`T TOUCH OR ELSE!". That`s probably the reason why there are almost no people out there whose mothers dared christen them "Jesus" or "Elvis". That`s why people`s expectations are unrealistically high and utopian. The family knew Elvis as a person, and they know that nobody can BE the same person, but they also know a good portrayal of him when they see it. I am a lifelong Elvis fan and I can say: "Yes, Austin, You are enough and so much more!". You can`t please everyone and that`s because most people are too shallow to understand the complexity of a project like this role and the movie in general.
