‘Prior to ‘Priscilla’, Jacob Elordi’s Awareness of Elvis Limited to ‘Lilo & Stitch”

Jacob Elordi is the most up to date star to handle the duty of Elvis Presley, as he stars in Sofia Coppola’s upcoming movie Priscilla, however the 26-year-old star had an unique intro to the King of Rock n’ Roll.

“[Elvis] wasn’t on my list of people to play,” Elordi shared of getting the duty throughout a look today on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. “It was bit terrifying”

When Fallon asked if Elordi has actually been a long-lasting Elvis follower, the Euphoria celebrity responded with a laugh, “No, the most I knew of Elvis was in Lilo and Stitch.” In the preferred Disney movie, both Lilo and Stitch impersonate Elvis throughout their journeys.

However, Coppola aided Elordi get involved in the mind of the late symbol. “I watched this clip of him, when he came back from the army in Germany, and I read the lines for like 15 minutes and then shot two takes, not thinking that it would go anywhere,” he remembered of the tryout procedure. “But she liked it, you know? I mean, it’s Sofia Coppola.”

The movie, starring Cailee Spaeny as Elvis’ ex-wife Priscilla Presley, reveals the darker side of the pair’s fabled love. “It’s very difficult to sit and watch a film about you, about your life, about your love,” Priscilla herself stated throughout the Venice International Film Festival on Sept. 5. “Sofia did an amazing job. She did her homework, we spoke a couple of times and I really put everything out for her that I could.”

Priscilla shows up in movie theaters on Nov. 3. Watch Elordi’s meeting listed below.
