Why Harry Styles wasn't cast as Elvis Presley in new biopic
Speaking of his decision to not cast the former One Direction singer, Luhrmann said:"Harry is a really talented actor."I would work on something with him but the real issue with Harry is, he's Harry Styles," he told"Harry and I came to a place, genuinely I mean, he was just desperate to put the suit on and explore. He's such a great spirit and I have nothing but great things to say about Harry Styles," he continued.
"For that reason, there was something incredibly sacred surrounding him, so I thought I should try to get the part.""I was very intrigued by it… I feel like if a director feels like I'm not the best person for the role then it's better for them and it's better for me," he continued. "If they think the movie's going to be better with someone else then I don't want to do it because I don't want to be the not-as-good version.""The thing about Aust was that he will tell you himself, I didn't pick him, it's as if he was drawn – like the role drew him in because he was almost born to play it."You know, we can talk about it now, he like loses his mum at the same age that Elvis did.
"He sends a video to me with this thing and… He just happened like two years non-stop living and breathing as Elvis. He's now going through a sort of it's like deprogramming thing because he's been a long time since he’s known who he was."
