The lengths Austin has gone to embody his character mind, body and soul is unbelievable. As a proud Elvis fan I'm equally as proud for this extremely talented young man who was clearly determined to portray his character with respect, dignity empathy, and with the utmost most believeabilty, no mean feat for for any actor regardless of age or ability. Austin comes across a very humble and gracious young man and will go far . Thanks ♥

Hi Lesley,thanks agree with you. For past week saw many short videos of Austin interview he really did a great job in his love commitment he brought to portray Elvis in singing n dancing just like him. It's his hard work for 2 years he prepared for his role as Elvis Presley is so successful! Surely all his fans friends around world are thankful!

[@sandrabeeman751]

He took me back to when I was 13 and had pictures of Elvis all over my room, iv seen this movie ,so far 8 times . What an actor. He had better win awards I seen he up for some in the spring .

[@jimturiello8467]

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for Elvis and his fans. Austin Butler will WIN the Oscar next year as Elvis and it’s time Elvis received his Oscar for all the different contributions Elvis made to the motion picture industry…. Ok fans, these interviews and the stars are what Hollywood was all about and it somehow got lost….now in a unique way it’s back….let’s get the ball rolling campaign for Elvis to get an Oscar, the time is now….I was lucky to experience the Elvis world he created back in the 50’s ….black & white television appearances, buying his 45’s for 39 cents, going to see Love Me Tender in a movie palace, that’s right a movie palace in Washington Heights, New York….years later Elvis live in Madison Square Garden…fast forward 3 1/2 years ago I began writing my book, never knowing that this monumental movie was in the works…Of course I haven’t seen the movie yet, only the trailers but the new book Elvis: The Quest for an Oscar gives an accurate account of why Elvis deserves an Oscar for not only his 31 movies but for his unequaled contributions to the movie industry. On another note everyone who had the opportunity to see Elvis movies in the theaters when they were originally released always came away with a unique and gratifying movie experience. Elvis was not only a movie star but a great actor also. Austin Butler will absolutely win the Oscar for his performance in “Elvis”. This is the movie you must see, Elvis: The Quest for an Oscar is the book you must read, 536 pages with a great cover. It’s time Hollywood recognized Elvis for his contributions to the movie industry…when Austin Butler gets his Oscar next year and he will, Hollywood needs to right the ship and give one to Elvis. For those who say I’m wrong, for those who want to criticize these feelings, remember what you are witnessing is coming from the greatness that Elvis possessed……Elvis never really left the building, he is forever right there in our minds and hearts….as Ed Sullivan would say “tonight this is going to be a really really big show right here on our stage, Elvis……Presley………

[@lifeissweet9826]

If anyone deserves a lifetime award, it's elvis!!

[@lisal6121]

Oscar is calling! Austin gave us an Elvis that feels like a whole man, not a two dimensional image.

[@DYA9091]

Austin really shocked me, he is soo sooo massively talented, is magnificent, and has this unbelievable magnetism, he is vibrant, so passionate, he deserves all the success in the world, I hope he is surrounded by ppl that truly love him, protect him, and have his best interest in mind. Seriously so so massively talented, and on top he is absolutely beautiful. #austinbutler

The very first time I saw the movie Elvis, at the beginning when they’re showing Elvis and Austin on stage at the same time singing, literally blew me away! I felt like I was at a real concert and was really seeing Elvis in concert. My heart was beating so fast! I was even crying during the movie because it was so good! Austin did an excellent, wonderful, amazing job! He surely deserves an Oscar for that. Austin did such an amazing job of portraying Elvis as he really was in person. There is no one at all on this world that can portray Elvis the way Austin Butler did!! I have watched the movie about 10 times now and each time still has my heart beating fast. Austin you are the best!!

I am sure Austin will go on to have a great career and put in many great performances... I don't know if it is possible for him to top this though, it is one of the best performances I have ever seen in a film, there is something transcendent about it. I have seen the film several times now and he is just flawless. There are mash ups and side by side comparisons people have done on you tube and it is honestly like watching Elvis then and a later incarnation of him.

Dare I say that Austin Butler stole the show in Dune part 2 as Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen ...WOW! (insert Feyd voice here) "May thy knife chip and shatter." His colleague Timothee Chalamet even commented on how intense it got when Austin transitioned from Austin into character as Feyd, for their battle scene. Wishing Austin much joy, health and success. May he receive tenfold all the love, kindness and generosity he exudes and shares with the world by simply existing ❤
