The Baz Lurhmann-directed biopic received Golden Globe nominations for best picture and best director as well. The 80th annual Golden Globe Awards are scheduled to air Jan. 10, 2023, at 8 p.m. ET on NBC.

Elvis Presley’s story will head back to the big screen in a forthcoming Sofia Coppola-directed biopic centered on his wife Priscilla Presley, with Jacob Elordi taking on the role of the King of Rock and Roll.

Talk of the upcoming film sparked Twitter comparisons to Butler’s role in Elvis, which is now streaming on HBO Max and other platforms. Elvis has became the second-highest-grossing musical biopic at the global box office (third domestically) and director Baz Lurhmann’s top-grossing film in the U.S. and Canada.

The film was released on Blu-ray and DVD in September, so if you’re looking for a gift idea, you can order a copy now, and have it delivered before Christmas.

Butler stars alongside Tom Hanks, Olivia DeJonge, Dacre Montgomery and David Wenham in the film chronicling Presley’s story as told through the eyes of a complex relationship with his manager, Colonel Tom Parker (Hanks).

Presley died one day before he was slated to start a new tour. The 42-year-old singer was found unresponsive on the bathroom floor of his Graceland mansion on Aug. 16, 1977. This year marked the 45th anniversary of Presley’s death.

Aside from the complicated dynamic between Presley (Butler) and Parker, Elvis explores the rock legend’s rise from poverty to unprecedented stardom “against the backdrop of the evolving cultural landscape and loss of innocence in America.”

Elvis debuted in theaters in June and has grossed over $280 million worldwide. It was later released digitally on Prime Video, Vudu, Google Play and other platforms for $19.99.
