Luke Bracey will help Elvis become King

Image Luke Bracey, best known for his remake of Riding the Wave, has joined the cast of the as-yet-untitled biopic Elvis Presley. Baz Luhrmann will be in the director's chair of the project, and Austin Robert Butler will appear as the King of Rock and Roll.

Luke got the role of Jerry Schilling, with whom Elvis played football back in Memphis. Over time, Schilling became an important part of Presley's entourage, while developing his own career as manager of The Beach Boys, singer Jerry Lee Lewis and other iconic figures in the music scene.

In addition to Butler and Bracey, the cast of the biopic includes Tom Hanks (he will play Presley's manager Tom Parker), Maggie Gyllenhaal as the King's mother Gladys Presley and Rufus Sewell as Elvis's father Vernon Presley.
