To be directed by Oscar-winning Sofia Coppola, who also wrote the script, the biopic will film in Toronto and also star “Mare of Easttown”‘s Cailee Spaeny as Priscilla.

Priscilla’s memoir, which became a New York Times bestseller, details her life and love story with Elvis, to whom she was married from 1967 to 1973.

According to Deadline, Elordi, 25, auditioned for the role of Elvis, while Spaeny, also 25, was Coppola’s first choice to play Priscilla.

The King is back. After rocking the box office since earlier this summer — and earning a reported 141 million so far — Elvis, Baz Luhrmann’s epic telling of the rock & roll legend, has finally hit streaming services.

The film stars Austin Butler as the titular character, with Tom Hanks playing Presley’s manager Colonel Tom Parker, and Olivia DeJonge as Priscilla Presley. “Elvis, in the epic tradition of all of Luhrmann’s work, is a brash, overwhelming experience,” Rolling Stone‘s K. Austin Collins wrote in our movie review. “It’s a carnival in movie form.

Forty-five years ago, on Aug. 16, 1977, Elvis Presley was found dead in the bathroom of his palatial Graceland estate in Memphis — officially of cardiac arrest, but the medicine cabinet of prescription drugs in his system surely didn’t help. In the decades since, reviving Presley and his legacy has become a recurring pop-culture ritual. The campaigns have included a jukebox musical, numerous reissues and lavish box sets, an Edm remix, documentaries (most recently 2018’s Elvis Presley: The Searcher), and biopics (starring Kurt Russell and a pre-Miami Vice Don Johnson).

Strictly Come Dancing is now into its fourth week and the competition is really hotting up, with an incredibly close leaderboard.

Digital Spy was watching along and have rounded up all of the scores and judges' comments below:

1. Anita Rani and Gleb Savchenko dancing the samba to 'Hips Don't Lie by Shakira: 6+7+7+7=27

Len: "Your hips certainly don't lie. A little bit long getting started but once you got into it… I thought you coped very well. I think it could have been better leg action, but I'm being pernickety."

Bruno: "That was warming up nicely. The samba has a carefree feel to it, but a couple of times there you got a little tangled and it kind of stopped it a little bit. The technique is actually very very hard. It was a bit on and off."

Exclusive: Newcomer Alexander Dreymon has landed a major recurring role on the upcoming American Horror Story: Coven. On the witch-themed, New Orleans-set installment of the FX horror franchise, Dreymon will play the handsome young man who moves in next door to the Academy. He is with Gersh, Independent Talent, and attorney Carlos Goodman. Kara Killmer (If I Can Dream) has been cast in USA Network’s drama pilot Horizon. Set during the height of World War II, Horizon centers on Lauren (Ruth Bradley), a secretary at the FBI who begins a secretive investigation into files that have been stamped with the codename “horizon”. Killmer, repped by Kelly Tiffan Management and attorney Marcy Morris, will play Anna, a beautiful, high-class call girl who is far more than she appears.

10. Zoanette Johnson, Tina Tuner's "What's Love Got to Do With It?"

Well, here's the good news: Now Lil Rounds can claim her rendition of "What's Love Got to Do With It?" from season eight isn't the single worst version in Idol history. Zoanette is truly a mesmerizing, popcorn-worthy spectacle deserving of P.T. Barnum's time, but you knew she'd fall apart the minute actual singing was required of her. Mariah can claim that her take on "The Circle of Life" worked because of "her backstory" (uh, in Liberia? That's why Zoanette's a natural at crooning about lion birth?), but it was really thanks to the instrumentation's campy grandeur, which tonally matched Zoanette's Wendy Williams-meets-Pagliacci hissy-fit theater. I appreciate that she thrusted about...

It was ladies' night on American Idol Tuesday as the top 10 women took the stage, hoping to earn one of just five spots in the next round of competition.

And now it was all up to the viewers.

Caution: spoilers ahead!

The two-hour show offered soaring, star-making performances from Candice Glover, Amber Holcomb and Angie Miller, who drew standing ovations from judges and admiration from the crowd.

Glover's shimmering and nuanced cover of John Legend's "Ordinary People" earned praise from Mariah Carey, who said it gave her "goosebumps."

"I'm learning [as I'm] listening to you," Randy Jackson said of Glover's skillful performance.

Never judge a book by its cover. And never judge an American Idol judge by a pre-taped, carefully edited episode. That message was made troublingly clear by the shenanigans that occurred during Season 12′s first live telecast — featuring the Top 10 women squaring off for (presumably, but hopefully not) only five spots in the finale.

Keith thought pretty much everybody — even the excruciating Tenna Torres — was just great. Nicki Minaj lowered the bar by treating contestants as if they were on the menu at KFC, drooling over their breasts and legs. And Randy Jackson pronounced vibrtao as if it rhymed with frittata,...

Ten girls. Two hours. Tons of votes. The American Idol judges are putting the decision in America's hands tonight as the girls of season 12 battle it out in hopes of making it to the Top 10.

The talent among this year's female contestants is arguably at its highest level in years, and Randy believes there's a strong chance one of the girls on the stage will be this season's winner.

Now that America is voting, the TV Fanatic numeric rating system is back. Each contestant will be rated out of 5. Let's get to it...

Zoanette Johnson kicks off the night with Tina Turner's "What's Love Got To Do With It." I'll give her this: Zoanette seems at home on the stage. She's comfortable up there. Energetic. But that's the only positive thing I can find in her performance. She sing-shouts, is off key, and belts out a random, crazy note...

Morgan Spurlock, the filmmaker behind the anti-McDonald's documentary Super Size Me, has a new project, A Day in the Life, set to premiere August 17—on Hulu. A Day in the Life will feature six half-hour episodes each chronicling a 24 hour period in the life of jet-setting entrepreneur Richard Branson, the Black Eyed Peas' will.i.am, comedian Russell Peters, Girl Talk, and others. Hulu's decision to invest in premium long form original programming follows Netflix's $100 million purchase for rights to Kevin Spacey's 26 episode, half-hour series House of Cards. With A Day in the Life, Hulu is transitioning from the familiar role as a passive distributor of TV shows from ABC, NBC, and Fox—the networks owned by Hulu's media company parents—to a business of original programming. But unlike what Netflix seems to be doing, Hulu is not laying down the gauntlet and competing with TV. Andy Forssell,...

I love singing competition shows (I also hate having friends, which works out great). So Justin Timberlake’s rumored plans for a possible Myspace talent show have me intrigued.

The singer/serious actor’s manager Johnny Wright told THR that a talent competition could be in the plans for the Myspace facelift project Timberlake recently signed on for, that will focus on making the social networking elder a destination and platform for new and existing artists. Official plans will be announced at an Aug. 17 press conference, where he will also likely wish me a happy birthday (a dream elf confirms to me).

Is there another golden-voiced homeless man out there? Alex Lambert, a shy Texan known for having one of the best singing voices on last season's American Idol, writes in a series of Tweets that he's been "Sleepin' on the street" since wrapping the Web-based series If I Can Dream in October. "Alright so I didn't want to bring my person (sic) life to my fans but I'm about to freak out if I don't tell yall the truth!" he wrote in the wee hours of Tuesday morning before dropping the bombshell: "Ever since Iicd ended I've been kinda homless!

American Idol season 9 contestant Adam Lambert tweets he’s homeless, rep says otherwise? – [Jan. 19] American Idol contestant Alex Lambert took to his Twitter account and sent out tweets stating that he was homeless, however his rep is saying that the Season 9 American Idol TV show contestant, also famous for starring in the Web reality series If I Can Dream, is not homeless and receives a regular monthly stipend. American Idol season 9 contestant Alex Lambert, not to be confused with Season 8 American Idol runnerup Adam Lambert, has been making music and producing demos for 19 Entertainment, a record company that manages various American Idol contestants. A spokesman for 19 Entertainment said that Alex Lambert shouldn’t be living on the streets, and that the American Idol Season 9 contestant Alex Lambert is being paid regularly for his music contributions. The 19 Entertainment told EW that just can’t be true. Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, the rep added,...

It's not exactly the most encouraging piece of information for hopeful contestants to receive on the eve of American Idol's new season. But word that season nine semifinalist Alex (no relation to Adam) Lambert was homeless lit up the Internet yesterday, thanks to a Twitter rant by no less an authority than Lambert himself. And this despite not only going far on Idol, but signing a development deal post-show and starring in Simon Fuller's web series If I Can Dream. So is he really as housing-challenged as he let on? Is he one more example of Hollywood chewing up and spitting out young talent? Hold on to your big red plastic Coke cups, this rumor is… So false! Yesterday morning, the...

On the eve of the season 10 debut of "American Idol," one of last season's most lovable losers has gotten himself back into the news. Perhaps you remember stage-fright-wracked singer Alex Lambert, the talented but nervous guitar strummer whose ouster unleashed an online petition of support from more than 13,000 fans who wanted him reinstated to the show.

Well, on Monday night, Lambert posted a string of tweets in which he claimed he'd been forced to live on the streets of Los Angeles since October, when he wrapped up his stint on the reality series "If I Can Dream," the online show he fled to after being booted from "Idol."

After chatting with some fellow fans and former "Idol" pals about his frustrations with the music biz, Lambert dropped this...

Alex Lambert, a semi-finalist on season 9 of "American Idol", has generated media frenzy on Tuesday, January 18 with his Twitter rant about being homeless. A representative for his management company, 19 Entertainment, has since debunked the claim, and though the 20-year-old singer himself has noted in earlier tweets that there was a miscommunication, he later insisted he is not lying.

In a series of new tweets, Alex explained, "I know alot of people think I tweeted my living situation for publicity! But I don't give a damn about fame!" He went on to write, "I dont give a damn about money either! I have never had any and I've been just fine! The money that I was makin and have made I have sent home for my Mother and my 3 broke ass brothers sleepin on the ground!"

"I just wanted the people that loved me to know what was really goin on,...

Alex Lambert, a former contestant of "American Idol" season 9, shared some disturbing news on his Twitter on Tuesday, January 18. Becoming one of the cast of "If I Can Dream" soon after eliminated from the "Idol", the 20-year-old aspiring singer said he's been homeless after the Simon Fuller web series ended.

His rep quickly debunked it to Entertainment Weekly, "He's not homeless. I don't know where that came from. He's on a retainer, and he's getting money every month. He's working on demos. He's with writers, he's working on music." But Alex insisted, "I'm real! And I don't lie! and I would never lie to yall!(yall being my supporters who got my back through thick and thin) F**k yeah I was."

The story began after Alex tweeted on November 18, "Alright so I didn't want to bring my person life to my fans but I'm about to freak out if...

Alex Lambert, Season 9 American Idol hopeful, has taken the adage starving artist to an entirely new meaning. After being booted from Idol’s Top 24, the 20-year-old Texas native starred in If I Can Dream, Simon Fuller’s web series, and even appeared on VH1’s Don’t Forget the Lyrics in November 2010. Rather than drumming up buzz for new music, the reality star is making headlines after sending out a string of tweets declaring that he is homeless and living on the streets of L.A."Ever since Iicd ended I've been kinda homless!

Does Ellen DeGeneres know about this? Alex Lambert got a lot of mileage from those (including Ellen) who thought he was booted far too early from last year’s American Idol season. But the singer says he’s hit hard times since appearing on the reality show, If I Can Dream. “Ever since Iicd ended I’ve been kinda homeless! Sleepin on the street and behind buildings,” he tweeted. I have a choice to stay and persue my career or go back to texas and not do music! I’m usually a strong person but I can’t take it anymore. I’ve been goin to coffee shops and other stores so I can tweet to my snaf! Because to be honest! You guys are all I really have!” Despite the alarm, Lambert clarified that he hasn’t thrown in the towel yet. “There’s no way I’ll ever...

'American Idol' season 9 semi-finalist Alex Lambert is now homeless and living on the street, according to his Twitter account.

If we're to believe the unverified "TrueAlexLambert" is indeed the mullet-sporting Texas crooner, he's fallen on some pretty hard times after appearing on the web series 'If I Can Dream,' which was created by 'Idol' executive producer Simon Fuller.

"Ever since Iicd ended I've been kinda homless! Sleepin on the street and behind buildings. I have a choice to stay and persue my career or go," tweeted @TrueAlexLambert.

Fox International Channels has launched Single Dads, an original scripted comedy web series on Hulu created by and starring comedy duo Pete Karinen and Brian Sacca of Pete And Brian and NBC.com's Fcu: Fact Checkers Unit. Single Dads chronicles the misadventures of two single fathers struggling with the responsibility of having kids: The series features the characters Pete and Brian, who met when they’ve both got kicked out of a parenting class at the local Ymca.

New racy image of Miley Cyrus's ex-boyfriend Justin Gaston for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) campaign has been revealed. For the ad, Justin poses nude along with his "If I Can Dream" cast-mates, actor Benjamin Elliott and model Giglianne Braga, who both also go naked.

In the PETA image, Justin is seen sitting on the floor with his hands holding Giglianne's right leg and his head covering the beauty's private part. Meanwhile, Benjamin stands behind Giglianne while covering the model's boobs with his hand.

The new image is almost the same like Justin, Benjamin and Giglianne's past PETA campaign which had been revealed back in July. Unlike previous shots, the new image talks more with words saying "If you need fur to keep warm, you've got problems. Animals killed for their fur are beaten and often skinned alive. Please don't buy fur or wear fur or fur trim.

I don’t know what you are, If I Can Dream. One sec to Google. You are a web series created by Simon Fuller. Cool. Now you are naked and re-iterating that we should not wear fur. Kind of weird seeing someone naked before knowing their name — what is this, Slutty Local College? Ohhhhh snap! The students there are such sluts. Why use fur to keep warm when you can be naked and have naked dudes block your boobs? That’s literally the only thing that isn’t a really simple alternative to wearing fur. A dude in a t-shirt would’ve conveyed the message clearer. Even if his erect penis was also out and super zoomed-in-on. Even then I’d be like “I understand a little better what they’re going for here.” If the people from If I Can Dream can’t reach this woman who still wears fur,...

Teen pop sensation Miley Cyrus's ex boyfriend Justin Gaston has stripped off for animal rights organisation PETA's latest campaign. Gaston joins aspiring model Giglianne Braga among others for an online reality show If I Can Dream in the photoshoot aimed to raise awareness about animal cruelty, Contactmusic reported. "With this PETA campaign, what I really wanted was it not to be about me but to be about the animals. We're trying to bring light to this cause," the 21-year-old Gaston said.

The threesome claimed they weren't nervous about being naked. Giglianne said, "If nudity is involved, especially because it's for a cause, I didn't see anything wrong with that. We're just supporting a good cause by being naked." Meanwhile, Justin added, "With this PETA campaign, what I really...

Justin Gaston has stripped naked for a cause. The former boyfriend of Miley Cyrus appeared on a number of print ads for PETA's "Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur" campaign wearing nothing but a silver cross around his neck and showing off a tattoo on his hip.

Miley Cyrus' model ex Justin Gaston has stripped off for a racy new advertising campaign for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).

Gaston joins aspiring model Giglianne Braga and wannabe actor Ben Elliot, his co-stars on online reality show If I Can Dream, in the nude photoshoot, which aims to raise awareness about animal cruelty.

In the ad, Gaston is pictured standing partially behind Braga to protect his modesty, while he cups her left breast to save her from completely baring her boob.

And the 21 year old is happy to help with such a good cause.

He says, "With this PETA campaign, what I really wanted was it not to be about me but to be about the animals. We're trying to bring light to this cause.

Cyrus split from Gaston last summer.
