The upcoming Elvis Presley biopic, Last Train to Memphis from Twentieth Century Fox, in participation with Casting Workbook, is casting the role of Young Elvis for the new feature film. The search is for an actor 18 years of age or older to play a 16-22 year old Elvis.
"Last Train to Memphis" focuses on the years between Elvis's first, earth-shattering recordings and his meteoric rise to national prominence in 1956. These were years of revolutionary cultural turmoil, largely precipitated by Elvis's music.
The screenplay recounts the story of his against-all-odds success due to his uncanny gift for self-invention, his unstoppable drive, and the new sound he created that changed the music world forever.
With director Kevin MacDonald, based on the 1995 Peter Guralnick biography, the film chronicles Presley’s early years and his transformation from a high school kid to an overnight sensation credited with ushering in a radical new era in music.
