Just last year, Baz Luhrmann debuted a flashy biopic about Elvis Presley. Now, Sofia Coppola prepares to tell us the King’s story from a different perspective. Check out the first teaser for A24’s Priscilla below.

The feature comes from Academy Award winner Coppola, who wrote and directed the film. The story is based on the real-life Priscilla Presley’s bestselling memoir, Elvis and Me. Cailee Spaeny stars as Priscilla, with Jacob Elordi as Elvis. Dagmara Dominczyk also stars.

Here’s the official synopsis from A24:

When teenage Priscilla Beaulieu meets Elvis Presley at a party, the man who is already a meteoric rock-and-roll superstar becomes someone entirely unexpected in private moments: a thrilling crush, an ally in loneliness, a gentle best friend. Through Priscilla’s eyes, Sofia Coppola tells the unseen side of a great American myth in Elvis and Priscilla’s long courtship and turbulent marriage, from a German army base to his dream-world estate at Graceland, in this deeply felt and ravishingly detailed portrait of love, fantasy, and fame.

Spaeny’s previous feature credits include The Craft: Legacy and Bad TImes at the El Royale. She also appeared in the Showtime original series The First Lady and HBO’s Mare of Easttown.

Coppola won an Oscar for her Lost in Translation screenplay. Some of her other films include The Virgin Suicides, Marie Antoinette, The Beguiled, and The Godfather Part III.

Priscilla doesn’t have an official release date yet, so check back to THS for more updates.
