I think what also helped him identify with Elvis that others simply couldn't is his introvertedness and bond with his mom, both are key to Elvis was. Other extroverted actors and those who don't have that closeness to family I think can't relate to Elvis' shyness yet magnetic personality, his traditional mindset yet openness at the same time. His love for his mom and the devastation that occurred with her passing and the rest of his life
I finally watched this video in it’s entirety and I’m so impressed with this young man! He’s got big things coming his way and there’s no doubt in my mind an Oscar nomination is in his horizon with a WIN right up there!! Talent in it’s purest form!!!!
This actor has singlehandedly CHANGED the landscape of acting forever, there has NOT been an actor like this is 20-30 years. He IS the one to watch, and watch and watch!
This interviewer made so much sense in the interview. We are glad Austin played Elvis is more relatable now than when he was alive. And Austin's pay off is these fabulous new acting roles.
This guy is ready to fly......most amazing actor and singer in years. Waiting for an Elvis album from him....all the oldies. He is so handsome , humble , gorgeous etc.
"I become obsessed with anything that you can practice and get better" - said Austin in this interview. What a great love statement for the arts craft! Never in my life did a movie take me to 8 different cinemas like Elvis did. Baz was so inspired to choose Tom Hanks and Austin Butler as the perfect pair of hero and anti-hero. They were all so brilliant , this cinematographic masterpiece has the support of the entire Elvis family,. Hopefully it wins at least an Oscar.
I made it to 7 … got my DVD on what should have been my 35th anniversary in September, and have watched it at least once a day since then. Sometimes I just keep it running all day. 💕💕💕
he worked so hard and he is so respectful of always mentioning cast, crew, voice coaches, and Baz Lehrman iDirector is brilliant. I'd love to have coffee with Baz in Australia. May Austin always remain humble and sincere
Austin Butler brought Elvis back to the forefront. For that I am so grateful. Elvis sacrificed so much for something he really loved, his music, his family and his friends and of course his Little Princess, Lisa Marie. But I believe he always placed his Fans above. What a precious, generous, very handsome man. He worked himself to death along with greedy, greedy people who were there and pushing him. Bless Lisa Marie, she was inspired by Austin so much. I am so thankful she was there to see Austin the Golden Globe. She probably had wonderful dreams that special night. God Bless everything about Elvis forever.
Austin was nothing more than phenomenal. He literally turned himself into Elvis. He sacrificed almost three years dedicating himself to be the best Elvis ever. Didn't see his family for 3 years. He deserves every award there is. He is so good looking but humble.
I feel so sorry for him…ALL these exhausting and REPETITIVE questions. He can’t think of what to say, barely. Leave this guy alone, he is overbooked on these shows.
Austin's performance was one of the best biopic portrayals that I've seen. It also makes sense for Denzel to help him because Denzel as Malcolm X was absolutely incredible. These are two of my favorite biopic performances. They didn't spoof the iconic images...instead, they embodied the men they portrayed. Absolutely brilliant.
I had never had a desire to see a movie more then once and on the same day, but this movie i had to, 11 times i loved this movie at the big screen cinema ! OSCARS GALLORE 👍🥰Fr.Australia
I now what you mean, I have seen it 38 times16 in the cinema and 22 times on DVD so far. I never get tired of watching it. Austin was absolutely amazing and if he doesn't win the Oscar for best actor there is something seriously wrong with the academy voting system. Please, please let it be Austin that wins.
@@lindawalsh514 i know what u r saying, I can relate to you to, 17 times now I have seen it I have put off buying the DVD bc I don't think I would ever stop watching it!
I truly believe Austin will win the Oscar. Elvis, Lisa Marie, Benjamin and the rest of the Presley will certainly be cheering from above. Elvis will put his arm around Lisa and announce, “My Boy, My Boy”. “Hotdamn” and Lisa Marie will reply, “I knew he would get it daddy, he’s special, just like you and my wonderful son.” And the whole group will break into cheers, tears, and laughter. Can’t you hear them? I can!
I loved the elvis presley movie. Austin butler was elvis presley he had the singing,clothes and caring to his family. He was really great I hope one day he would be an elvis tribute artist singer because he would be great plus I would love to hear he's singing voice again
He has a little taste of Elvis' gruelling life. Since the film, I too have watched all 31 of Elvis' films and glad to hear he watched all of the films too
All the TV shows as a teenager up until today have really given him the experience to have the opportunity to play Elvis the first heart throb of the music industry and a legend! Austin is easy on the eyes, so Elvis fans just saw Elvis in him. Elvis trusted him to play him and offered his spirit to help the world see the real Elvis and, from his childhood up to his last days. Lisa Marie gave him the opportunity to stay at Graceland by himself for the whole day, and that's where he did his channeling of his spirit. He's amazing and very intelligent. ❤️🏆
Austin Butler deserves an Uber-Oscar. His was a spectacular performance of paying tribute to the musical and cultural phenomenon that was Elvis.🤩 Through Austin❤, Elvis is yet again weaving his magic for today’s generation.
He has to win the OSCAR .he deserves it so much he brought Elvis back to life he has his frame 💘 great Fabulous Austin x watched the movie so many times will watch it again ...loved it x💘💔💔❤❤❤💙💙💙
I believe that Austin seen the entertainer in Elvis but also his Humanity is very important but Elvis said in one of his interviews it's hard to live up to an image but then there's the man, I believe the man the humanity of Elvis was not known by too many but I believe the Austin tapped into that Humanity because of similarities both being entertainers in different ways and in similar ways and how many people actually know Humanity of Austin Butler and not just the image, thank you Austin Butler for seeing Beyond just the Entertainer in Elvis but for also seen his Humanity you did a phenomenal performance but I think some of your Humanity came out too congratulations understanding getting back about what needed to be done to show Elvis Presley and some of yourself God bless you.
Just think if Elvis had got to do James Dean?? Elvis could have changed the world. .Austin was good. Elvis was the bomb . I Love you Elvis Nobody will ever match you !!!!
Austin you have been told many times you are amazing. I'm telling. You that your mom is beyond proud of you. The God love that lives with in you is one of a kind. Stay strong and keep your sweetness. I dearly love you.
This is such a great interview and Austin is so genuine! You can see how he talked so easily and was so comfortable in this interview. He portrayed Elvis so beautifully and they had so much in common. Elvis would have loved Austin!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This interviewer asked some really good questions. Even the ones Austin answered 100 times before, this guy asked them in a way that didn’t bore the viewers (who have seen a million Butler interviews), and probably didn’t bore Butler himself. He’s usually reallt engaged in interviews no matter the situation or content/questions, but he seemed very relaxed and like he was enjoying the conversation
21:04 TBF it's well-deserved, not just because of the talent, obviously, but for how hard he works. It is sad though that you need to get a break first before those opportunities come to you. I'm so happy luck was on his side. I am looking forward to seeing more of his work because he blew me away in this film.
He might win the osier, but maybe not,,there’s a lot of actors out there that have there own movies that they did,, well will see what happens good luck 😊
Sad oscar voters didn’t see the Elvis movie I did . Austin was brilliant & omg the entire movie was snubbed after all that crazy hard works not just months but years . Shame on those voters . Yea BAFTA , Irish international best actor & movie !! So just Sag - AFTA - didn’t agree w the world wide voter. Anxiously awaiting the new films from Austin !! 🎉
18:26 Austin is such a lovely soul! I’m so happy 4 him & proud! w his journey w his acting career. Very wonderful and dope person inside and outside! much love xx ;)🫰🏾♥️🤭
Não tenho que liga muito se tiver que fica sozinha em casa no meu cafofo Deus não faz milagre tempo todo é só mas um detalhe da vida ele faz milagre por ele mesmo que as pessoas acham mas não estou me importando muito com isso
I felt the blues after this movie came out. I'm not sure why but we want to see the movie over and over. I guess it's because it's elvis but also Austin is breaking hearts too.
We need new information heard this information on other interviews. I want someone to ask Did u get to meet Elvis or just talk to him? See how he reacts since some feel he’s still with us!!
@@lesley-anneweir307 it’s kinda a joke because there are people who say he arranged his death if you look at person in casket it was not an over weight Elvis and they allege it as a wax figure from museum in casket💕💕🐝
Tive que levanabta e tira todas as minhas coisas da sapatada e tive que joga água no chao do banheiro e lava o banheiro atrás da sapateira que talvez amanhã e só tira os calçados para fora eu queria fica lá fora um pouco mas vou tenta até meio dia
Yes unfortunately they always like to pick the comeback story, B Fraser , the weight, me too m'ment, yes I think B F will take it But I firmly believe that A B (ELVIS)most certainly deserves it.
i love austin butler. he portrayed elvis perfectly. no one will ever top him
Yeah those familiar (demonic) spirits worked through him like a puppet.
Yes I totally agree with you xx he is the only one that has portrayed perfectly x love him cause he has Elvis body ❤❤frame x 💕💕💘💔❤❤❤❤
lol, I would if he'd let me but having him top me would please me the most.
Austin is such a genuinley lovely man . He deserves all his success and love for the future ❤️ x
I pray he wins an Oscar ❤❤

Yes...that's it exactly. Along with Austin's care and dedication. 👏
Yes I agree xx💔💘💙❤
What a beautiful young man. You have to love him. He's worked so hard.
Well done Austin xxx 💝
He needs to get an Oscar!
Austin was FREAKING INCREDIBLE!!! as Elvis he deserves all the awards right up to the Oscar he has done so much and deserves all the praise
I finally watched this video in it’s entirety and I’m so impressed with this young man! He’s got big things coming his way and there’s no doubt in my mind an Oscar nomination is in his horizon with a WIN right up there!! Talent in it’s purest form!!!!

I agree him & Baz both incredible 💕💕💕🐜🐝
Absolute GENIUS.
TRUE !!!
He deserves this year's Oscar!
Austin will replace the best.... Philp Seymour Hoffman!

AUSTIN DESERVES THE OSCAR FOR ELVIS

Stop asking him about Denzel. We know the story!!!

If he doesn’t get an Oscar I’m am going to be very upset because he definitely worked har for that.
Yes I agree Joyce you said all ha

God bless you Austin, you have this one.
He is so humble, love Austin, may fame will not change you, wish you the best in everything 💕
I’m happy he’s got other roles coming but I’ll never get over him as Elvis. Nothing would ever be as good.
Hizo una gran interpretación del gran Élvis presley 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻muy buena entrevista 👏 esperó gane y nominen a los Oscar 2022
Gran y maravilloso film Elvis
This guy really deserves the oscar let's see if they know what a excellent performance is
Just think if Elvis had got to do James Dean?? Elvis could have changed the world. .Austin was good. Elvis was the bomb . I Love you Elvis Nobody will ever match you !!!!
Austin you have been told many times you are amazing. I'm telling. You that your mom is beyond proud of you. The God love that lives with in you is one of a kind. Stay strong and keep your sweetness. I dearly love you.
This is such a great interview and Austin is so genuine! You can see how he talked so easily and was so comfortable in this interview. He portrayed Elvis so beautifully and they had so much in common. Elvis would have loved Austin!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Jamie Foxx playing Ray Charles is the best ive ever seen. This kid is up there though. WELL DONE.
Yes, Jamie lip synced well. And swayed his head sitting at the piano nicely.
I grew up in the 50's just like austing grandmother
Austin portrayed Elvis's real life. No one's ever done that. He works so hard and he did a beautiful job.❤
It's a crime he did not win the oscar. Seriously.
In 20 or 50 years, we'll see if his performance still has the impact vs. The Whale's. Time is the greatest test.
I was pissed. But I’ve never seen The Whale.
I think Austin did a great job of Elvis
This interviewer asked some really good questions.

Not only does Elvis' voice stay with him like the tic in his shoulder. 😁 2:48
I had to watch it again! You're right. Thanks for time stamping!
The Oscar should have gone to Austin Butler! I just watched "The Whale". No comparison!
Me too!!!!
Great interview ❤.
It's interesting.. I'm waking at 3 am as well.....
Look at his hands and then go find pics of Elvis hands , , fingers , way similar
He might win the osier, but maybe not,,there’s a lot of actors out there that have there own movies that they did,, well will see what happens good luck 😊
Sad oscar voters didn’t see the Elvis movie I did . Austin was brilliant & omg the entire movie was snubbed after all that crazy hard works not just months but years . Shame on those voters .

Austin conhece alguma fã que tem um pouco de depressao
I felt the blues after this movie came out. I'm not sure why but we want to see the movie over and over. I guess it's because it's elvis but also Austin is breaking hearts too.
Austin quero fazer outra pergunta meio sem muita noção será que papai Noel tem depressão nessa época do ano
2:52 Proof that my boi Austin is PACKIN’ (in case there was any doubt)
tip: look at his index/ring finger ratio. 😘😏✋🍆
You mean basic male anatomy?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
His long fingers, those feet, ahem...other things...definitely shows what he's working with. And he's working with a decent amount.
@@cryforthemoon keep reading the replies. @Tiffany Lee gets it 👌
Why do we need that information? Can't we for once not sexualize a celebrity who's just talking
We need new information heard this information on other interviews.
I want someone to ask
Did u get to meet Elvis or just talk to him? See how he reacts since some feel he’s still with us!!
He wasn’t even born when Elvis died! That’s not a question that needs to be asked!
@@lesley-anneweir307 it’s kinda a joke because there are people who say he arranged his death if you look at person in casket it was not an over weight Elvis and they allege it as a wax figure from museum in casket💕💕🐝
Porque talvez ela vai querer entrar aqui no meu quarto talvez hoje ou amanhã sei lá é tudo tem que está limpo ou um pouco organizado
I'm glad I don't watch Hollywood anymore.
Tive que levanabta e tira todas as minhas coisas da sapatada e tive que joga água no chao do banheiro e lava o banheiro atrás da sapateira que talvez amanhã e só tira os calçados para fora eu queria fica lá fora um pouco mas vou tenta até meio dia
I don’t trust the academy Brendan Fraser was outstanding as well
Yes unfortunately they always like to pick the comeback story, B Fraser , the weight, me too m'ment, yes I think B F will take it
But I firmly believe that A B (ELVIS)most certainly deserves it.
Your doing amazing job 🥰😎🌏🌌💯 @austin butler
