Now, as Butler’s turn as Elvis Presley has earned him Academy Awards attention, it’s clear that Butler can do anything he wants next. With “Dune: Part Two” and historical epic “Masters of the Air” in the works, Butler has a “Little Less Conversation” and a whole lot more acting up ahead.

Coming off his intense, years-in-the-making “Elvis” shoot, his body immediately went into crisis mode, he told British GQ, and he was briefly hospitalized. By July, after undergoing months of Elvis workshops — and an unsolicited call from Broadway co-star Washington, who told Luhrmann, “You’re in for a surprise when you see the work ethic of this young man,” said the director — Butler had beaten out the likes of Miles Teller and Harry Styles for the role. Then the work of finding and translating Presley’s heart and soul began. Adapted from Danny Lyon’s book, “The Bikeriders” follows the rise and fall of a fictional 1960s motorcycle club in the Midwest. Michael Shannon, Mike Faist and Norman Reedus round out the ensemble.

This Is A Life from Everything Everywhere All at Once, Music by Ryan Lott, David Byrne and Mitski; Lyric by Ryan Lott and David Byrne It was early 2019 in Los Angeles, and Austin Butler already had Elvis on the brain. A friend, hearing him sing along to “Blue Christmas” in the car, had urged him to portray the icon one day; others brought it up too.

I didn’t talk to my family or my friends or anybody,” Butler told IndieWire. “I would talk to them every couple months or something, but I really did lose touch with me. But I also learned things about myself — that’s a beautiful gift. It’s a confusing part about being an actor.” Butler starred in 10 episodes of the beloved series, all while making guest appearances in fellow teen shows “iCarly,”“Wizards of Waverly Place,” and Out of Jimmy’s Head.” Love is in the air for model Kaia Gerber and Elvis actor Austin Butler.

He was looking at Howlin’ Wolf and Big Mama Thornton and all those incredible artists down on Beale Street,” Butler said. “You’ll see a move that Little Richard does and you go, ‘That’s how Elvis moved. Is that where he got that?’ Elvis was kind of a magpie where he pulled things from a lot of different places.” ‘She loved him so much’ At some point in the future, Butler would like to move behind the camera and make movies like Tarantino, Luhrmann and Paul Thomas Anderson, writer-directors he admires. “I love filmmaking,” he said. “I don’t know what else I would do with my life.
