To portray the character of the legendary singer Elvis Presley, Austin Butler underwent two years of training. He worked with a number of vocal and dialect coaches and infused the mannerisms and behaviour of Presley in his everyday actions. He researched and read everything he could find on Elvis and listened to all his songs. To gain weight, he microwaved ice - cream and drank it, which eventually took such a toll on him that he had to be hospitalised.
