Cailee Spaeny and Jacob Elordi play Priscilla and Elvis Presley in Sofia Coppola’s new film, now playing in theaters nationwide. But unlike Baz Luhrmann’s glitzy, Elvis-centric spectacle from last year, this story is from Priscilla’s point of view. Spaeny and Elordi spoke to The Associated Press about the whirlwind shoot, Coppola’s calm set and establishing a trust with one another to get to the heart of a complicated relationship. It’s already been a breakout moment for Spaeny, who may have less lines than Elordi but is getting plenty of awards buzz for the depth of emotion she can convey without dialogue.
