Baz Luhrmann on How Elvis Cast Is Doing After Lisa Marie Presley’s Death (Exclusive)

'Elvis' director Baz Luhrmann chats with ET’s Cassie DiLaura at the Spotify New Artist Party in Los Angeles. Luhrmann reflects on the death of Lisa Marie Presley and shares how the cast of 'Elvis' is doing. He says he takes comfort in knowing Lisa Marie has ‘come home’ to her father, Elvis Presley, and the pair being together again is 'poetry in and of itself.'

Baz Luhrmann is such an amazing director who made a phenomenal movie about the real Elvis, his incredible talent, his principles, his family, & how Elvis touched our lives. Baz is so humble & gracious to put the emphasis back on the Presley family & how they're coping with this tragedy. He should have been nominated for an Oscar as both Austin & him are why this film was made with such realism, accuracy & insight as to who Elvis really was & how Elvis was a generous man who cared about human rights, freedom & those less fortunate than him. That is why this movie touches our hearts & souls with everyone in tears in the theaters. I hope the Elvis movie wins Best Picture, Best Actor, & other categories & that Baz's wife, Catherine Martin, wins an Oscar for best costumes as they all worked so hard & deserve to win. RIP Lisa-Marie & I know you're with your loving son & dad.

So well spoken, very sweet as an honor to Lisa. She would of loved these words. She is with her Daddy. It’s going to be sickening to watch if Pricilla comes after the money. I’m sure she has a stake in it but she has to live within her means. Luckily Lisa died with a 35 million dollar life insurance policy, the farm is saved! The Elvis fascination is fading. All his fans are dying. I love some of his songs and so does my 40 year old son and my 22 year old daughter. They should let Elvis and Lisa’s wishes stand.

Elvis has not been nominated ?

DITTO!

I've never gone back to see a movie in the theater 5 times, in my life. Others went back ten times or more. It's an amazing movie.

RIP Lisa Marie. You will be so missed. I ❤️ love you ❤️ always.

[@Verbsdescribeus]

Lisa Marie Presley was given the best present ever by the Elvis movie honoring her dad. Baz has this particular way of giving meaning to any context - he left aside his pain while thinking about the loss of the family... Art celebrates life!

[@nicholasgarrick8855]

Baz is such amazing director love him elivis was such extraordinary film love it.

[@wallymarcel1]

Love Baz. Love this extraordinary movie.

[@TheElvisSpirit]

Although it also is a very sad period, it almost feels like everything comes together in a sad good way
.I pray she found her peace, and will be remembered along with her father and son.

[@Amy26Alice]

Love you Baz. Hope everyone is doing okay and the Elvis movie does well 🤞🏽🙏🏽

[@ruthnagarya2028]

No one can articulate answers that are so authentic, true and honest. Roller Coaster is certainly an appropriate analogy.

[@nicholasgarrick8855]

Rest in peace beautiful Lisa Marie presley 🙏🏾🕊 you're with your son again. And your father💫.

[@oldhollywoodfan8009]

I still can’t believe this is real.😞

Amazing man Baz, this movie is the best ever done of Elvis.

[@AddieGraceLOL]

News outlets seriously need to leave people alone if they're going to just put it out to the public how they're doing. It's none of their business. Let them speak out on their own.

Inane questions

[@BrickUnit]

gayest straight man iv ever seen, next to daniel johns

[@periscope7731]

That jacket is fugly. Looks like he is wearing used sandpaper!

[@susanshew2373]

Why does everyone start a sentence with "I mean"??????

[@80steen44]

The Grammys suck. Glad the American Music Awards gave best soundtrack to Elvis over Encanto even if the Grammys didn't. The Oscars are lame for not nominating Baz for director. Glad Austin won the Golden Globe head to head over Fraser who did nothing compared to what Austin did. If Austin doesn't win the Oscar it's criminal

[@nomopms1]

She asked silly questions.

[@earthkarma7420]

She always does.

[@trisharundle1964]

look up john 3:3 romans 10:9 john 14:6 jesus yahusha taught 2000 years ago that you must be born again. RIP lisa marie.

[@Pure_B]

Is he drunk or something?

[@dellchica2373]

As gay as you can be. Great job Baz.
