Jacob Elordi plays Elvis in Sofia Coppola's upcoming A24 movie.
Priscilla will arrive in theaters very soon, providing a new recounting of the complicated relationship between Priscilla Presley and Elvis Presley . There will surely be tons of interesting revelations from the Sofia Coppola-helmed film, especially given Elvis' permanence in pop culture and the recent success of Baz Luhrmann's Elvis. As Elordi revealed in a recent interview on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, his previous exposure to Elvis was rooted in an unexpected place.
"I found that reality fascinating: She wasn't allowed to have friends over to Graceland, and she'd hear other girls whispering about her," Coppola explained in a previous interview."She was so isolated. It was strangely relatable: In my 20s, I remember having a crush on a guy, and part of it was, if I was with him, then I wouldn't have to develop an identity of my own: I could just be the girlfriend of this guy, and that would be so much easier.
