Harry Styles could have played Elvis Presley in a musician-related biooptic instead of Austin Butler

The star of the last Cannes Film Festival, her boyfriend Kaia Gerber, and a new sex symbol – it’s all about 30-year-old Austin Butler, who plays Elvis Presley in a new biopic about the great musician. But it turned out that he was not the main contender for this role. His rival was Harry Styles, but the producers eventually chose Austin.

Director Baz Luhrmann admitted that although he did not audition for the role of Elvis Presley, he quickly realized that Harry Styles was not the most suitable option. And all because Harry’s personality is too recognizable for such a role. “I would love to work with him. But the real problem with Harry Styles is that he’s already Harry Styles. He’s already an icon,” said the director.

Do you think Harry Styles would be a good fit for the role?
