Behold! Michael Shannon and Kevin Spacey as ELVIS & NIXON in a Brand New Trailer!

 

Hey guys! Horrorella here...

If you needed a little something to make a bad week end on a high note, or even make a fantastic week end even better, you've come to the right place. A trailer has been released for ELVIS & NIXON, a comedy based on the infamous meeting between the two giants that took place in the Oval Office on day in 1970.

On a December morning in 1970, the King of Rock ’n Roll showed up on the lawn of the White House to request a meeting with the most powerful man in the world, President Nixon. Starring Academy Award® nominee Michael Shannon as Elvis Presley and two-time Academy Award® winner Kevin Spacey as Richard Nixon, comes the untold true story behind this revealing, yet humorous moment in the Oval Office forever immortalized in the most requested photograph in the National Archives.

 

 

Really, they couldn't have picked two more perfect actors for the roles. Spacey seems to be embodying the spirit of Nixon while giving the character a comedic edge, and Shannon as Elvis could very well be perfection. I'm loving it. Not since BUBBA HO-TEP have I been so excited about an Elvis movie.

The film is due out later this year. What do you guys think?
