Director Baz Luhrmann chats with USA TODAY’s Ralphie Aversa about his 2023 awards season with the film “Elvis” and Austin Butler.
Might winning the best actor Oscar be another way to pay tribute to Lisa Marie?
"I’m so humbled and feel so privileged to be listed in the great actors in this category," says Butler. Winning would be"a beautiful way" of honoring her, but"just going on this journey at all has been the biggest privilege of my life."On the call, Butler sounds weary. The pain the actor still feels after spending the weekend at Graceland along with fans and fellow mourners is evident.
"Being there, well, it was really devastating. It was incredibly heartbreaking. We are still all in shock," he says."It doesn’t feel like it should be real, it's just incredibly sad. "But it’s also a beautiful thing to see so many people come together for a unified love for one person," he adds."I feel privileged I got to be there for her, and for Priscilla and Riley and Harper and Finley and the entire family. But it’s just so shattering."
