JAKARTA - Baz Luhrmann understands that fans love Austin Butler's appearance in Elvis's biopic. Therefore, he announced plans to re-release Elvis's film with a different approach. “ This is not a film cut. There is a lot of material that makes Elvis's film supposed to be four hours long but I'll say it's not today, not tomorrow, but I'll do the release,” Baz Luhrmann told IndieWire today, Tuesday, November 29. “ Since Austin (Butler) did the concert scene as a whole. He performed the whole song. Austin did it and saw him do it, I think I will edit his concert performance,” explained Luhrmann. He explained that Elvis's concert scene was carried out professionally, so it would be a shame if the scene was not fully watched by the audience. “We used all the cameras.LUnk Walker (sinematographer) even had lenses produced in ‘60, ‘70, and ‘80 to equalize everything, he continued. Previously, Baz Luhrmann revealed that the actual duration of Elvis's film was four hours. But he had to cut a lot of scenes to 2.5 hours. “ I have a lot to show. There are many scenes that I recorded such as relationships with the band but I have to reduce them. Also the relationship with his first boyfriend, Dixie,” he said last June. "I put it there for a while but it arrived at a point where I couldn't have it all so I just tried to bring the spirit of the character," he explained. Austin Butler also explained that the concert scene was carried out in full like a concert, not shooting per scene. “ Baz and I thought when we were on stage, we didn't record like I was acting. So I'm going to perform on stage in Vegas, recording the whole concert, the curtain is closed, I'm out,” Austin Butler said. “ So every time the audience gets a concert experience. If we cut each scene, I am considered to entertain the audience as Elvis. It's the same as I keep joking so that the audience is entertained, ” he explained. Even so, neither Austin Butler nor Baz Luhrmann have revealed when Butler as Elvis's full appearance can be released publicly.
