Elvis Movie

Lisa Marie Presley confirmed that talks for a big screen film about the life of her father Elvis Presley film have begun and she is all for a biopic film about her late father’s life.

Big music makers such as Johnny Cash and Ray Charles have had major hit films made about their lives and contributions to the music industry, so Lisa Marie Presley feels it would only be fitting for her dad, The King of Rock and Roll to have his own big screen film also.

Rumors are circulating that Mick Jagger, the Rolling Stones front man has been working on a project about Elvis Presley called “Last Train to Memphis,” which will focus around the early career of Elvis.

Elvis Presley first bust out into the music industry in 1954 began his music career in 1954 and to this day and forever will always remain a music and pop culture icon. On August 16, 1977 Elvis Presley died from heart failure at the age of 42, leaving behind his only daughter Lisa Marie Presley and millions of broken-hearted female fans, many who make a trip to his Graceland home every year on the anniversary of his death to honor the king.

If Lisa Marie Presley gives the green light for a big screen film about her father Elvis Presley’s life, which celebrity male do you believe would be the best to capture the essence of Elvis Presley?
