Priscilla Presley and Sofia Coppola Bring the Story of Elvis's Wife to the Big Screen
From our NewsNet partners, the new film Priscilla, directed by Sofia Coppola, tells Priscilla Presley's side of her famous love story with Elvis, and why she left one of the world's biggest stars.
In an exclusive interview with Parade, Presley shared how she felt handing off her life's story to the Oscar-winning filmmaker. After many movies and TV shows that have focused on the life of the King of Rock 'n' Roll, Priscilla has finally entered the spotlight. She was a producer on the film as well and chats about what it was like not only watching her story come to life but also working alongside Coppola on the film.
The pair were both at the premiere at the Venice Film Festival where the movie received a lengthy standing ovation. The movie is now in the hunt for awards with its stars Cailee Spaeny and Jacob Elordi receiving high praise for their transformations into the iconic pair of lovebirds.
