While responses from Sofia Coppola and Lisa Marie’s estate were not forthcoming when E! News reached out, Coppola’s written reply to Lisa Marie’s concerns hinted at a hope for reconciliation of perspectives-a desire that the film would honor both Elvis and Priscilla with the care and depth they deserve. Her protective instinct over both parents shone through her words, highlighting a desire to maintain the dignity of the Presley name. She feared the portrayal of her father and worried about her mother’s legacy, questioning the perspective the film might cast on the iconic singer. Lisa Marie voiced her concerns to director Sofia Coppola, per a published email by Variety.

Despite receiving Priscilla’s endorsement, the adaptation faced criticism from her daughter, Lisa Marie prior to her own tragic passing at 54 years old. With Priscilla at the helm as executive producer, the film aimed to capture the essence of their bond. The complexity of Priscilla’s relationship with Elvis has been chronicled in her 1985 memoir, “Elvis and Me,” which found a new audience with its recent film adaptation. He felt he could not divide his focus further, giving any less to his career or to the idea of expanding their family. Elvis’s hectic life of fame and the guilt he felt over his absence during Lisa’s formative years weighed heavily on the decision. Priscilla also touched upon a more personal aspect of their life: their decision not to have more children after the birth of their cherished daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, in 1968. No one else could ever hope to fill his blue suede shoes. At 78, she may not have confirmed these murmurs, but she was transparent about her disinterest in remarriage even after the music icon’s death in 1977. The whisperings had long circulated that Priscilla had taken a vow, one of the heart, to not entertain matrimony while Elvis walked the earth.
