Priscilla Presley arrived at the 75th annual Cannes Film Festival to attend the premiere of the highly-anticipated new Elvis Presley biopic, ELVIS, alongside the star-studded cast.
She posed on the carpet with the film’s lead, Austin Butler, as well as Tom Hanks, Alton Mason, director Baz Luhrmann and others from the cast. The actress, who was married to the legendary singer from 1967 to 1973, wore a rich chocolate brown dress, with glittery appliqués for the occasion.
Butler sported a Celine suit by Hedi Slimane and teamed it with a Cartier watch, ring and bracelet (it was announced Wednesday he joined the luxury jewelry brand as its latest celebrity ambassador).
Also wearing Celine but not spotted with Butler is his girlfriend Kaia Gerber, who walked the red carpet separately from the cast in a red dress from the brand. (The duo didn’t walk the 2022 Met Gala red carpet either, only stopping at the top of the grand staircase for a kiss before going into the party.)
Butler stars as the titular role in the new biopic, while newcomer Olivia DeJonge will portray Priscilla. Oscar-winning actor Tom Hanks appears as Presley’s manager, Colonel Tom Parker. The film follows the life of King of Rock ‘n’ Roll, his music, his relationship with Priscilla, and of course, there are plenty of bedazzled fashion moments to see from the hip-swinging showman, courtesy Prada and Miu Miu.
Priscilla also walked the 2022 Met Gala red carpet alongside the cast, who were all decked out in Prada.
Priscilla told Vogue on the Met stairs, “I feel great; I love the movie.” Adding, “The young generation will learn more about him. I think the movie is for everyone. They’ll learn something.”
