    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 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.

    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.

    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 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 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.

    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. ❤️🏆

    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.
