Austin Butler Premieres ELVIS in Toronto
Austin Butler attended the Canadian premiere of his new film, ELVIS last night, June 17 in Toronto. Held at the TIFF Lightbox Theatre, the actor was joined at the premiere by director Baz Luhrmann and his costar, Olivia DeJonge.
A thoroughly cinematic drama, Elvis’s (Austin Butler) story is seen through the prism of his complicated relationship with his enigmatic manager, Colonel Tom Parker (Tom Hanks). As told by Parker, the film delves into the complex dynamic between the two spanning over 20 years, from Presley’s rise to fame to his unprecedented stardom, against the backdrop of the evolving cultural landscape and loss of innocence in America. Central to that journey is one of the significant and influential people in Elvis’s life, Priscilla Presley (Olivia DeJonge).
The film will be released to theaters on June 24.
