I don't think Austin Butler is faking his voice at all. His voice was very similar to Elvis and that's why Baz Luhrmann chose him. People are saying Austin doesn't sound the same from his early career. Of course, not he's getting older. Hello!! 🙄 Young Marlon Brando did not sound the same as old Marlon Brando. Compare Elvis and Priscilla Presley's voices from videos on KZfaq when they were younger and how their voices sounded at the end. So different. At this point skeptics are splitting hairs trying to discredit this young actor. He's amazing.

They finished filming this movie over a year ago. He’s had plenty of time. We don’t see other people run into this for other roles on talk shows 🤔 I think he’s being young & leanin into it

@@sarahtanis1235 i don't mind it tbh

Get real, he's as fake as Elvis.

It’s similar to Alec Baldwin when he did his Trump impression….idk how long it took for him to learn Trump’s voice and practice it….but he got it pretty good, and when he finished playing Trump, apparently it was hard for him to get out of Trump’s voice and do his own voice.

AGREED.

100%

I TOTALLY AGREEEEE !!!!

yes sir

And Hanks as well, you hated Hanks' character, but his performance was fantastic

Honestly nobody can do Elvis justice. Austin knew that even if his fans give him more credit than anyone can possibly earn here. Good job tho

Give this man fucking Oscar he don't deserve it he earned it

No he still is

@@tylerwyatt8988I think he can deserve no higher praise than Priscilla and Lisa Marie saying he just embodied elvis onscreen so that’s the backing of the two people closest to the man

I definitely agree!!

Agree, it was brilliant.

I agree! I'm from 2002 and I did know about Elvis Presley but it wasn't until I watched this film that I learnt his story and I wanted to know more about him and his music. I love his music, he really knew how to sing and how to move as well! Jailhouse rock moves are really cool and by the way, he was handsome 😍 one of the most good looking guys I have ever seen. I wish he had a longer life for enjoying a lot more of his music but it's already cool that thanks to online platforms we can still enjoy his legacy.

And, the Oscars snubbed the movie.

​@itsbritney1013 I'm glad you're discovering ELVIS. I been there since I was about 8-9 years old back in 1963. You won't be disappointed. I love you ELVIS forever!💜⚡️⚡️

He didn't get an Oscar but he got a Golden Globe.

Omg, thats reall! Now I see it. It was also So Good of Jimmy for starting that of easy and circuking to get the boy more calm.

@Jack Costabile yep definitely

@@Yamagatabr ikr?! He's one of my favorites for not making celebrities unnecessarily uncomfortable like other hosts we know 👀

Yes

omg adorable

I grew up listening to Elvis with both of my parents and watching his films as well and my disabled Aunt was a superfan of Elvis so I myself know when a portrayal of Elvis is either great or a flop and this is no way a flop! You will not be disappointed when you get to see this movie!! Get your tissues out though because I cried like a baby!!

CGI helped

So true there where moments I just saw Elvis.

I was thinking the same exact thing you are so right

Loved the movie. Grew up in 70s idolizing him and this movie did not disappoint!

His face unfortunately looks absolutely nothing like Elvis but he did a fantastic job with everything else that he could actually control

@Jack Costabile yeah he’s been acting forever but now everyone loves him and he’s everywhere I’m sure it’s overwhelming after being overlooked for so long. He deserves it! He seems humble

Wonder if there'll be Austin Butler impersonators..

Looks nothing like Elvis

He faked or helped Biden or mumbles out tremendously.

Of course he is. He gave him a beej before the show.

I noticed that to

He's a huge fan boy here. Sometimes Jimmy is the best at this sort of thing.

Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking

Agree 100%!

like the costume designer for the film said in a recent interview with Vanity Fair: "It's not about imitation, it's about interpretation."

Ik same he played Elvis so perfectly he portrayed him how Elvis actually was

I was going to say the same thing!

Once the press tour is over, I think he will drop the accent. It reminds me of lady gaga and Bradley cooper flirting. It was all for the press and the Oscar nominations

Boy he sure git bothered when Austin touched him though. He gets freaked out. 😅

Same. I'm obsessed lol

Yess me too

Elvis dated young girls and was emotionally and physically abusive please .

Yeah my daughter is the same way

@@phoenixrising8860 he dated young girls, yeah, him being emotionally abusive isnt his fault, if you watched the movie. the young girls part is little shocking but atleast he “waited” i just think it was his down spiral frl, very tragic

@@vectormxl2016 he stole music from the black community . He’s nothing more then a child sex predator , abuser and culture thief and racist

@@vectormxl2016 being emotionally abusive to other people is always your fault, you may have your own shit going on but that doesn't mean you're not accountable for your actions. your problems can be used as an explanation and a way to understand your actions, not an excuse. 'he waited' until Priscilla was 17 to move her in and have penetrative sex with her, they did other sexual stuff which Priscilla admitted in her memoir before that, suggesting the only reason he waited was to stay on the right side of the law. he was interested in Priscilla because he wanted to 'mould her into the perfect wife' and after she got pregnant he was no longer interested in her. when she was 7 months pregnant he left her then got back together with her while womanising on the side. when she cheated on him and he found out, Priscilla said in the book that he raped her 'to show her what a real man was.' this all comes from a woman that is still dedicated to him to this very day, so I'm inclined to believe her. stop making excuses for this man. www.thethings.com/elvis-presleys-wife-priscilla-abuse/ www.express.co.uk/entertainment/music/1237459/Elvis-Presley-Priscilla-sex-threesomes-polaroids-underage-how-old-14-interview-fans-music

I agree, I loved him in the Carrie Diaries. Elvis looks amazing, can’t wait to watch it!

One of Elvis’s favorite actors- Jimmy Dean

Jimmy was an amazing actor so that's a huge 👏

I miss that show 😭

Same!

He Sure is!

I was sadly born 7 years after Elvis died but I've been in love with him since my childhood for some strange reason and this movie was a treat and I rewatch whenever I need a pick me up ❤

The ELVIS movie tooooooo mesmerising amazing from start to finish THANK U AUSTIN BAZ LURHMANN AUSTRALIA

Cringe

Preachh🙌🙌🙌

@@taquitobandito6054 "taquito bandito"

Not only that, he had to go through voice coaching and training for more than a year, just like when you take singing lessons. That of course, made a huge impact on his natural voice.

@@1saamor897 ?

Because there was an actor called Brendan Fraser who gave the world a performance of equal or possibly even better skill & heart. No shame in not being given the honour when someone produces work of those levels. Both actors were very much worthy of the accolades they were given.

@@HalleyBay61I’m sure he was honored just to be nominated

@yesie8375 100% He has got so many roles off that performance it looks, so that's a win win.

cuz it's a rigged popularity contest.

If it was a rigged popularity concert he probably would have won. Say what you will, Brendan Fraser was amazing in The Whale.@@EFinn-kc6mo

He did a great job. when you first see him, you're going mmm he's looks a bit different from Elvis... but then he is so on point with the voice, the mannerisms and movements... you start to simply accept him as Elvis on the screen.

I don't agree. Gushing is repellent!

i've seen him like this with richard madden, too. the scottish charm lol

See it. It was fabulous and thus guy deserves all the accolades he's getting. His rendition was truly perfection

I completely completely agree

I noticed that too! I feel that jimmy really enjoyed this interview and was fascinated.

100%

the movie wasnt that good cmon now

@@219kentucky Shut up

@@219kentucky yes it is

@@219kentucky I've seen it twice now, it's seriously good man

He’s been around for a long time! I loved him in Carrie Diaries and he was in another show so it’s wild to me to see him in this and not see those characters. I shut my eyes when he did the voices and was blown away because I haven’t seen movie yet and only see him as those characters

Absolutely James Dean that’s a wonderful idea 💡

Perhaps but at a time I believe brad Pitt would have been perfect but I believe that ship has sailed now. They should give it a try james dean was elvises idol.

They already made a movie about James dean he was played by James Franco

He was in the Shannara Chronicles as well. Wil Ohmsford

Agree, he really did an amazing job! Also, if you want to check out this Elvis Presley/Austin Butler vocal comparison I made, heres the link, they are singing trouble! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b8uenLNemau8l30.html

Yeah I had no idea who this young man was till I saw the Elvis movie, and he is SO amazing in it, and then I got curious about him and looked him up, and saw about Vanessa Hudgens and that is too bad they broke up, cause I saw that he is now, it seems, with that stick Kaia Gerber and yuck, that girl looks like an anorexic 10 year old, plus it's sad/wrong when people are famous only because of their parents....her mother is cindy crawford, she's just riding her mom's coat-tails, that is the only reason she's famous, cause she's really not pretty and would never be a model if not for mom.

Yeah, she was really excited, but also kind of jealous, after all she was the famous one when they first started dating. She was hoping to join him at the events related to the movie to promote herself and also get into serious acting. Well, too bad Austin decided he didn’t wanna be with someone who couldn’t just be genuinely happy for him. If it wasn’t for that they might have been an endgame.

Vanessa hugdens

@@mamamoma9238 you’re talking like you know them personally Lol

apparently they gave him a coach for mannerisms and voicing. For about two years he was coached on it

@DMK666 no he was fine

And apparently he was the actually singing in the movie

@@princesam4401 in parts yes

@DMK666 Watch the movie.

I 100% agree!!!

Ditto!

100% agree!

101%

When I heard they were making this movie, I was nervous. I really hoped that the script would do Elvis justice, but also I knew whoever they got to play him had SUCH a role to fill. I agree that Austin really took it upon himself to make sure he did it RIGHT. And he nailed it.

He’s faking it

​@@adamrichard7311 I was gonna Say the same thing, HE IS FAKING IT

@@CGamez-re3hu not so much faking it, but still selling the movie. He’s in character still

@@adamrichard7311 in character still

Yeah, I don't remember him sounding like that.

@yuoop noke Amen to that ! :)

He’s definitely been around modelling and he had a part in once upon a time in Hollywood

@@jordanlongley3776 yeah, he played Tex Watson

Last time I saw him in something, he played Tex Watson in Once Upon a time in Hollywood, and the Shanara Chronicles. They did not do him justice! I don't really watch biopics, but this one I will. I didn't even see Bohemian Rhapsody and I'm a huge fan of Rami Malek! I can listen to Austin talk all day. So calming and soulful.

What he was on icarly!?!?!!

I think the Spirit of the Man Austin portrayed will be with him from now on. This was a Command Performance that clearly shows that He was with him throughout the whole process, start to finish, and I think, beyond.

As a historian, do you believe it to be possible that Elvis fathered other children? Possibly unknowingly? Given what the Memphis Mafia has said about his promiscuity, I have always thought it to be possible. Although, no one who's ever been publicly photographed has ever bared as much resemblance to him as Lisa Marie.

@@caitlynrolfe7672 anything's possible, but it seriously doubt it.

@@michaelstorm2165 I absolutely agree!!...he didn't just play Elvis in this movie -- he was TOUCHED by Elvis, and I think he'll carry him with him forever. Thank you, Austin!! ❤️⚡️❤️

Oh you'll love it

It's gullible bimbos like you that what made celebrities think they can do whatever they want to normal people like R.Kelly did to those underage girls. Their charismatic persona is just an act to hide their true ugly side. They act for a living, if you think they are as nice of person when they are in public as they are in their private life, you are beyond ignorant!

Oh you'll want to see it again & again. Be prepared with tissues. The movie is overwhelming.

He ain’t a kid bruh man is 30 yrs old

that’s a really sweet outlook. when Elvis was alive, he didn’t achieve it, but his memory and legacy (through Austin) will. that’s beautiful.

He (best male actor) and Tom Hanks (for best male supporting actor) better win them.

@@wingman-1977 💯 agree

A nomination would be best for his career, but not a win this early. Winning too soon would possibly be a detriment. He deserves the nomination, but there are more deserving actors who have been at this a lot longer who should probably get before he does. He has a very long and lucrative career ahead of him and as long as he stays on that old saying, "The straight and narrow", he'll be just fine.

@@noodledogs also very sad. Imagine the people acting/impersonating as you ended up winning the award that you aspired for?

@@noorz29 OK fair enough and well said.

his voice is fake

@@michaelperez9156 no it’s not

RIGHT ??

If Priscila and Lisa are monetary related to the film the seal of approval means nothing

I don't support Hollywood anymore as it is so corrupt. But, I would love to see Austin play Elvis! I saw Elvis in 72' in Vegas when I lived there. I was 20 and sat in the front row. Did I tell and scream with all the other ladies? You bet I did. I loved his music since I can remember. His voice is beautiful and I cried my heart out when I heard of his death in 77' when I was in Guam. Memories I'll not forget! You go Austin!! ❤️‍🩹

@@p.m.g8419 I would say that no matter what ties them to it, though I highly doubt it’s money, they still knew him better than anyone else, or any fan that watched an interview or two and thought they had some insight into his life.

yep he had too hold his hand still. I dont know why but its refreshing. there is so many people fake out there nowadays.

Literally can still remember him from all the Disney shows growing up😭😭

You said what I was thinking. I hope he doesn’t get tainted or mislead as he continues his career. He did a great job portraying Elvis in this movie. I hope all the best for him!!

Yes! He seems so down to earth and sweet, I sure hope he doesn't go down the wrong path.

He did the heck of a job

The most beautiful moment that touches my heart too💖

I have to admit I'm a pretty tough judge when it comes to Elvis impersonators. And I don't give compliments freely when it comes to Elvis. But I'm absolutely in love with this young man. And to hear this interview with Jimmy I was so heart warmed. He did Elvis proud. He made it his passion to learn to feel Elvis. I cried thru the whole movie. Yes I was sad, I will miss Elvis until the day I die. I've loved Elvis my whole life. I cried because it was like I was watching Elvis. I got goose bumps and felt giddy. I saw Elvis in Omaha NE in 1972. I was 12 years old and I promised myself someday I would be one of those beautiful women in the front row getting a kiss and a scarf. And he was gonna fall in love with me and marry me. Elvis passed I was 16 years old. So I never got to o grow up to see that dream thru. And it traumatized me for years afterward. I've been to Graceland twice. In my early 20's. And I felt Elvis's spirit in the home he so loved. I placed a long stemmed white rose on Elvis's grave. And I cried harder than most people have ever seen. It's on my bucket list to go back to Graceland. Mr. Butler made Elvis's feelings and excitement surge thru me. I'm so impressed it was easy to see that his acting came from his love of music and his respect and admiration for Elvis. This sounds stupid but I felt Elvis thru him. I want to see the movie again. In case I missed something. I will also be buying the movie and SOUNDTRACK when it becomes available. I'm quite sure we're seeing a star be born. God Bless him. He's got a huge fan in myself. I revert back to what I've always said "ELVIS WAS MY FIRST LOVE AND ELVIS WILL BE MY LAST LOVE." And this movie and Austin Butler is deserving of the highest accolades in Hollywood. Thank you for your time.

@@cindylbrennenstuhl4321 - thank you for sharing your story! I'm only 27 and I went to see the movie twice so far. It was amazing and beautiful. ❤️ I feel like Austin really made me feel like I was watching the real Elvis too sometimes!
