But yeah, you know, the Charles Manson disciple who mentions your Brad Pitt at the end Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood. ““I am the devil and I am here to do devilish things.” Avant ça, on l’avait croisé also bien chez Jim Jarmusch (The dead don’t die) what do you give Hanna Montana.

And you can, sitting in a chair and in the hall, in a suite or il apprête à donner des interviews à la chaîne. In the black tête aux bottines cheveux gominés comme en 56, le view qui electricse et ne vous lâche plus, une beauté d’ange rockabilly, une voix de crooner qui emplit la pièce et rebondit contre les murs.

Soulignant au pass qu’il a travaillé avec two Cineastes ayant imaginé Presley en Fantôme (Jarmusch in Mystery TrainTarantino performed Real love), as for a discrete proposal that is still upfront. He says he loves comedy, it’s good that the journalists want the paper to be written as an encore, and that they enjoy what happens during the encore. in character, que l’esprit du King vit toujours en lui. Mais bon sang, qu’est-ce qu’il joue bien. Austin who? Pas d’affolman. You’ll be back after the Oscars.

Premiere: You discovered Baz Luhrmann that you can see “they” Elvis in your message une démo où vous chantiez. Uninhibited melody, the last songs that Presley interpreted on stage. Pourquoi ce choix?
Austin Butler: I’m addicted to the best songs and trying to identify the laquel messenger in the Base. I don’t know the script that I ignore in all the films. This song especially touches me because it reminds me of my mother’s death. The appearance is not Elvis and do not squeeze a loving kiss, me foudroie à chaque fois. Une nuit, j’ai fait un cauchemar dans lequel ma mère mourait à nouveau et, au réveil, this chanson is surgi in my spirit. Je suis alors dit que c’était elle que je devais chanter et envoyer à Baz…

Elvis Presley was my best attaché to my mother, and he was boulevard to death, and he was waiting for that emotional connection between you.…
Exactly.

What does Elvis represent to you before this film?
Je l’ai toujours amé. My grand-mère était lycéenne dans les années 50, elle était folle de lui. J’ai passé pas mal de temps avec ma grand-mère quand j’étais petit, and as for the films of the Elvis ensemble on television… Mais je naissais surtout l’icône, pas l’homme. These are the principles of my research: to find a person in this world, to find the life he is waiting for, and to know plus humanity, life in the soul. Quels étaient ses poirs, ses reves, ses peurs. And this is the best plus of the encore.

What does it symbolize for young Americans today?
Beaucoup ne le connaissent pas. I will feel that the film remains a subversive force, a force of rebellion. Il portait des shirts with a toothbrush and eyeliner is an era when I was alone with myself, or in this place for this. I am also pure if you love what you perceive as not singing, not bougie.

When did you see the role, when did you start?
Despite the last month, I felt a huge responsibility. Until I made the official choice, it was already among mine, hanging lessons I devoured everything I could find, books, CDs, documentaries… Une fois embauché, I immediately turned to them very great dialect coachTim Monich, as far as I know, there seems to be work with Leo (DiCaprio) south Once upon a time… in Hollywood. I asked for advice on how best to approach Elvis’ voices. Sa voix and il chante, sa voix when they speak, and et la manière dont elles ont évolué au fil du temps.

Under the impression that you cherchez moins à “etre” Elvis, as he felt the sensation that il était…
This is the fruit of double work, external and internal. D’abord, il me Fallait comprendre comment il utilisait sa voix, comment il dansait… Puis tout oublier, pour faire en sorte que ça surgisse de l’interieur. I imagine Elvis in the era, in Memphis, on Beale Street, on a train with the artists they admire. J’essayais d’expérimenter ce qu’il avait expérimenté, de comprendre ce que this musique avait provoqué en lui.

Have you considered and studied other fiction about Elvis?
Beaucoup, yes. Everything I can find. You have great interpretations all over the world. Certain très subtiles, comme celle Michael Shannon (Dance Elvis and Nixon Lisa Johnson – ndlr). It seems Elle me plait beaucoup wants to imitate Elvis. You will save this caricature… Me too, on my tour, je voulais trouver son humanité. They are mine.

Est-ce que Tarantino, the great fanatic of the king who performed as a conductor Once Upon a Time… in HollywoodVous a donné des tuyaux?
At the 2019 event, from the moment I held the audition and used the mobile phone, I was waiting for you, last week I invited you to discover Habiya una vez… except for Quentin. They heard me answer: “ELVIS!!! ” After the projection, I developed a passion. Je repensais bien sûr au monologue in the debut Real love… C’était très émouvant pour moi, qui suis fan de Quentin depuis mes douze ans. I’m also having a discussion with Jim Jarmusch, who I like in this film. The dead don’t die. Louis also loves Elvis, and this was once realized. Mystery Train ! I love interrogating people who influence Elvis in the world. For example, what period do you prefer for Elvis?

Sans doute la fin des années soixante, after dinner Return Specialalbum From Elvis in Memphis…And you?
It depends on the days. I saw open grace in film during this period seventies, Celle que je connaissais le moins. In 69-70, at the time of the premiere shows in Las Vegas, this is vraiment en feu, these are hallucinations. Desormais, j’écoute des morceaux comme Polk Salad Annie, Never been to Spain, American trilogy. And another fantastic chanson that I adore: Good time, Charlie’s got the blues. And other times I don’t understand what you’re talking about. fiftiesI’ll be back now Dairy Cow Blues Boogie and etc. Heartbreak Hotel…

Vous devez sortir changed completely after this experience, didn’t it?
I’ve passed time with Elvis in recent years and this is the man who was my best friend. Parfois, I feel scared, nervous at the idea of ​​going into one piece, I concentrate on my energy and I feel different, different. Jai also noticed that I spoke encore comme lui de temps en temps. It’s addictive.
