Austin Butler Talks Golden Globe Win, Lisa Marie Presley and Denzel Washington's Influence

Lisa Marie felt such a connection to Austin and it became a natural experience she and he had. So glad that Lisa Marie got to experience a sort of rebirth of her daddy through Austin’s presence and acting. It was evident that this movie and actor moved her deeply. Great Job Austin. Priscilla was also moved and that says a lot as well🥰

@@tarabrooks3760Amen! Well said Tara. Beautiful guy, both inside and out. He’s determined to last in this industry as a dramatic actor. Love watching his journey. Over time KindKing people will see him as more than a pretty face. About 3 years ago, Austin did a sit down with his acting coach, Howard Fine, where he answered actor Q&A’s as well as some of Mr Fine’s questions. Great conversation and I believe it was there I heard Austin say that he competed with Denzel to be earliest to the theatre. That was when Denzel was really impressed by him. I don’t know if Austin goes off instinct or if he’s had some really good advice over the years, but he sounds like a true professional. I hope he keeps that humble, teachable attitude.

[@roxyhart3247]

While yes he deserves the Oscar now hear me out now here's my thinking this is his first lead role in a major film he'll have others where as Brandon fraser has worked his ass off for years and has only now been nominated so feel he should get it. I do feel dispite the amount of nominations on the best actor category it is a 2 horse race between these 2 incredible actors

[@kindking8009]

@@roxyhart3247 I'm sorry, but I can't agree. We have no idea what will happen with Austin from here on. Adrien Brody won at age 29 for The Pianist and hasn't done anything award-worthy since. I think that was 20 years ago. Awards should be based solely on merit, not because someone's been in the business for a long time and hasn't gotten one. With that said, both performances were incredible and it will be a close race. May the best man win.

My boy Austin is definitely having the time of his life!

Oh wow

[@cynthiasantos4093]

Wow you are so lucky! It must have been such a fantastic experience! It was awesome to see him in the movie, I can't imagine what it was like seeing him perform live!

[@pepsiyummie1]

So handsome. Also, he has that thing where he makes the person he’s talking to feel special…I can tell just in his interviews.

[@hapcummings5500]

This guy is pure class!!

[@Mommajarritos]

I love his voice and Denzel Washington is a legend!! 🫶🏼

[@vladbonite6495]

His voice actually changed because of Elvis

[@oldhollywoodfan8009]

It seems to be gradually going back to his own authentic California voice. At the Golden Globes he spoke in full Elvis voice. Made a lot of people cringe based on all the on line comments. It is nice to see going back to his own voice.

[@Model_Roe]

It's so cool Denzel mentored him

[@donnakomarc6677]

Austin Butler is a lovely authentic young man !!! No ego w this guy!!!! He’s just beautiful 😅inside & out !!! Omg ! He had such fun w Jimmy - the egg roulette game !!! Thank you Jimmy for having Austin on - for him & all the fans who adore him ! What’s not to adore ❤😊

[@jeanniepulice6831]

Austin Butler must win an Oscar for the portrayal of Elvis. He’s just simply amazing! Elvis’s spirit must have guided him throughout this performance.

Its great when the host let the artist take the lead and let them express theirself this way. I can see Austin's true colours and is verry humble.

Elvis is Born again thank you Austin you did a amazing job you are a good Super actor

[@jrbland18]

HE PLAYED ELVIS INCREDIBLE AND AMAZING. I LOVED THE MOVIE.

[@TheNatural2379.]

Loved his performance. He's very humble can't wait for his next movie. He's a great actor.

[@lisalovesarchuleta22]

I'm so proud of Austin Butler his performance in Elvis was so incredible I love Austin Butler

[@tippietoe7777]

I just absolutely LOVE him! The kindness, humility, intelligence, dedication, and immense talent that he has is impeccable and brilliant. I know there’s a lot of talk about Brendan Fraser and his performance in The Whale, which I’m sure was great. I just really, really hope Austin wins the Oscar. He didn’t see his family for 3 years while preparing for this role and then filming. Denzel Washington told Baz that Austin’s work ethic was unparalleled, and like nothing he’d ever seen! He didn’t just “play” Elvis - he embodied and channeled him. Priscilla and Lisa Marie both couldn’t rave enough about how much this meant to them and how impressed Elvis himself would have been. He so deserves this. This young man is thoroughly impressive and an absolute STAR! ❤️🎶⚡️

[@rethablair6902]

I haven't seen the Elvis movie but I will after this interview🤗

[@louiseparisotto3630]

Austin is such a humble, well spoken gentleman giving credit to others but recognizing that hard work is key to success. I wish him all the best in the upcoming Oscars - he certainly deserves it!

[@mehwhatevah]

The man is dedicated to his craft, no matter whether you're a fan or not. Most people don't memorize a full script to do a table read. Most don't spend 2 years of their life sinking into a character the way he did with Elvis. I hope he carries that same passion into future roles. No telling what he could accomplish.

[@naydenlover]

GIVE HIM THE FREAKING OSCAR!!!!! he was AMAZING!!!!!! HE NEEDS TO WIN!!!! I LOVE HIM!!!! this was amazing!!!

[@AdalydGracia]

Yes!!!

.. THE ELVIS FILM WILL NEVER COMPARE TO THE MICHAEL BIOPIC SET TO RELEASE IN 2025! Nice try Austin but you can't even come close! You're not even related to Elvis. Michael is going to have his blood line NEPHEW play him in his biopic. It doesn't get any more royalty than that. How does it feel? And don't think for a second we forgot the executives of 'Elvis' thought it was fitting to release the film the day before Michael's death anniversary on June 25th. You are NOT forgiven for that one. Michael >> Elvis. Long live the King!!.❤❤❤❤

[@kristingreen8179]

I just can't stop thinking about lisa marie . 😢 . Just all so bittersweet 😪

[@gurp1997]

Elvis is one of the best movie watching experiences I've had in a theatre

[@blakepowers777]

He’s amazing. I truly believe he channeled Elvis during filming. The scene at the Hollywood sign…that was Elvis! He passed when I was 5 and he was my first love. It just seemed like more than just acting. I think Lisa and Priscilla felt the same way. ❤️🥰

[@eileenchmielewski1420]

If you haven't seen Elvis yet, you MUST! He's extraordinary!

[@travet1000]

It was good. But so were all the other 1000's of Elvis movies. Brendon Frasier deserves the Oscar hands down.

[@catherineboeckmann853]

No, I’ve seen them. He’s so good, even better at playing Elvis than Rami was at Freddie and that’s saying a lot

[@littlesister7021]

Austin is one amazing guy. He deserves the best. I just can't get enough of him. Love you, Austin.

[@Romadrama]

That’s exactly my answer, word for word! how long have you been a fan of his?

[@justabruin]

He was so good in "Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood." So great to see him on this path now!

[@thatonepersonobsessedwithm4338]

so glad to see how far he’s gone and that he’s smiling! lisa marie must’ve been like a mother figure to him. i can’t wait to see his upcoming projects

[@kaileyllewellyn]

Austin truly deserves the recognition for the hard work he put into this role and not to mention he embodied Elvis really well. I'm so happy and proud of him!

[@kirstiejaynes8116]

I love how you didn’t hear a peep out of the audience as everyone was just completely enamoured with Austin ❤

[@jennamalone2092]

Yes, I noticed that too. It's like they were hanging onto his every word. Just something about the way he talks that makes people stay silent and really want to listen to what he has to say. Love him so much. ❤

[@carolrice1371]

I keep watching this over and over, all of his great interviews he has had on all the major television network stations. He is wonderful in all of them!

[@DYA9091]

Austin's performance is in fact the absolute BEST!!! you're so right jimmy.
