Priscilla’s daughter Lisa Marie reportedly was against the film being made before she died.
Presley praised Baz Luhrmann’s 2022 biopic Elvis as “a break from suffering and a ray of light”, adding that she did not understand Coppola’s “need to attempt to take my father down on the heels of such an incredible film using the excuse that you are trying to tell my mother’s story, but from your very dark and jaded reality”.
“I had to explain that her beloved grandmother is supporting it. These two little girls have been through so much in the past 7 years, enduring my divorce and horrific custody battle and then losing their brother. We’ve all been drowning.”Priscilla was an official selection at Venice film festival and has been reviewed positively by critics, including praise for Cailee Spaeny, who plays Priscilla and the Australian Euphoria star Jacob Elordi, who plays Elvis.
