Elvis Presley CGI recreation movie scrapped for THIS reason – James Dean REPLACED The King

Nevertheless, Elvis did have a momentary digital recreation in Blade Runner 2049 a couple of years ago.

Instead, a CGI recreation of James Dean, who died in 1955 after starring in just three movies, will play the soldier in Finding Jack.

The army character is called Fletcher, “who attempts to rescue his beloved military dog Jack at the end of the war.”

Meanwhile, Elvis is getting a musical biopic from Baz Luhrmann starring Once Upon A Time In Hollywood’s Austin Butler.
