ANOTHER ELVIS MOVIE PLANNED.
They say Jamie McDonnell has the voice, the moves and the looks and at the age of 16, the Garngoch teenager could be heading for Hollywood stardom after being asked to play Elvis in a new film about The King.
Jamie (stage name Jelvis) was spotted by a movie producer as he sang at Elvis' mansion, Graceland in Memphis, on the 30th anniversary of The King's death last month. "I was performing at Graceland on the anniversary of the day that Elvis died and that was already enough for me. But to be asked to appear in a film as well was incredible."
The film is being backed by Elvis author and former bodyguard Sonny West and could go into production very soon. This is just the latest in a string of "Proposed" movies about the Rock King. A movie based on the book by Jerry Schilling is being discussed and also the movie from Dee Stanley.
If any of the projects get off the ground is a different matter, although we do kind of hope (judging from past experiences) that none of them ever get the green light.

As usual, the guy looks nothing like Elvis. As for Dee Stanley, I find it very hard to believe that EPE will give her the go ahead on her movie

I really don't see how Sonny is going to be able to pull this off. Everyone knows how Lisa and Priscilla feel about most of the members of the MM. I realize Sillerman will probably have the last word (I would think), but I am sure Lisa will do whatever she can to keep this from becoming a reality
