Austin Butler seriously needs to drop that faux-Elvis accent already

It’s getting ridiculous. You’re from fucking California. And he sometimes speaks with an Australian accent too. Does he not know who he is?

He looks very tall and handsome though. Jimmy Fallon ruins the interview. He never shuts up and I hate his faux laugh.

He looks like he has blood sucking fetish.

He is overselling this dreed of a movie. There have been endless articles about how he prepared for the role. I don't even have any interest in seeing it anymore.

It will interesting to see if how well the movie performs.

Remember how Fox was stunned with the numbers Bohemian Rhapsody did because none of the execs really grasped how beloved Mercury was, including in places like Japan and Korea. I don't think Elvis has the same global luv, but maybe the Lurhrman style -- "throw everything at the screen like a meth party and see what sticks" -- will appeal.

Bad nose job. Men have to be careful with nose jobs or it throws their entire face off. He’s already got a long face and that little bobbed schnoz doesn’t work.

R3 bohemian rhapsody had an interesting trailer that made you want to see it. This Elvis biopic isn't that interesting.

Most younger generation know a queen song but I don't think they can easily sing an Elvis song.

Yes. Unlike BoRap, no Elvis song has been revived in a yoof movie recently.

Good point. Both the BoRap teaser but especially the trailer were very enticing. The trailer for this movie needs a re-edit: it's oddly unengaging.

The movie is getting awful reviews. Why is Baz Luhrmann getting money to produce anything. His exhausting style was played out immediately in Moulin Rouge.

I thought the movie was released last year. Is this a new director's cut or special DVD release?

R9. some reviewers disliked "Elvis", but, I've read, and seen on YouTube, many more raves.

The right out of the theatre reviews are positive.

He can speak in Singlish for all I care, but at least he ought to present dong, ptobably mutilated one ASAP. I bet it's massively long with big knob.

I can see the bomb ready to sit there and stink.

Beside the turd at R12.

Obese R13 always projects her turdy self, always.

R13 also said Top Gun Maverick would bomb bigly, but look at it now.

I have seen him on a few talk shows doing this fake ass Elvis voice and saying he was so in character he didn't talk to his family for 6 decades while filming or whatever garbage... lol. Can actors just act any more? Everyone is trying to be Daniel Day Lewis and win Oscars.

I haven't seen the movie, i'm sure he did a decent job as Elvis. But i'm finding it a bit cringe.

He’s coming off as so fake. So Unattractive, how is this your first big break and you can’t break from the character

I think Austin said somewhere in an interview, that he doesn't know when he'll completely drop the current Elvisesque accent.

I've met Austin many years ago and we bump into each other at events every once in a while.

I've always found him without any personality. He's handsome though and tall but just blank.

R20 you seem to ALWAYS bump into every celeb.

He sounds like Johnny Depp

He doesn't even sound like elvis. He sounds like a guy trying to do an Elvis impersonation. Yeah the rave reviews from paid audiences.

Chalamet must be seething at all the attention Butler is getting.

He was excellent as Tex Watson in Once Upon A Time.

I'm presuming he's a method actor who's just gone overboard. Most actors are certifiable so I don't why people expect them to be sane and interviewable.

He really looks like Elvis in that clip, but it’s true younger people probably won’t appreciate it.
