Elvis Presley made a return to the zeitgeist this past year.
On the heels of the Oscar-nominated 2022 drama Elvis, starring Austin Butler, the adult animated series Agent Elvis, featuring a “retro cool” look and the voice of Matthew McConaughey as the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll, arrived in April on Netflix.
Created by Priscilla Presley and John Eddie, with Eddie and head writer Mike Arnold serving as showrunners, the animated sitcom follows the music icon as he moonlights as a secret agent between performances during the period from 1968 to 1973. “It’s a known fact Elvis wanted to be a secret agent. The whole impetus for the series started from that photo of Elvis going to Richard Nixon and offering his services as an undercover agent,” claims Eddie. “I had always pitched it as Elvis Presley as a secret agent fighting crime, as if directed by Quentin Tarantino.”

“Agent Elvis,” the hand-drawn adult animated Netflix series from Sony Pictures Animation and directed by Fletcher Moules (“Entergalactic”), re-imagines Elvis Presley as a super cool spy in a wild, gory, drugged-out alternate reality. It crosses “Archer” with “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood,” putting the King square in the crosshairs of everyone from the Manson Family and Howard Hughes to Richard Nixon and Timothy Leary — all while retaining recognizable signposts from Presley’s life, from concert specials to his hatred of Robert Goulet.
There’s also an array of hilarious cameos, including Stanley Kubrick shooting a staged moon landing — guess who ends up in the space suit? — and a young George Lucas getting inspiration for the lightsaber from Hughes’ radioactive urine stream weapon. “Agent Elvis” is so meta that Baz Luhrmann even voices the director of Presley’s final film “Change of Habit.”

The best thing about Netflix’s Agent Elvis, which posits Elvis Presley as a spy within a covert government program, isn’t Oscar winner Matthew McConaughey voicing the rock ‘n’ roll icon. He just sounds like himself, which is funny enough and saves him the trouble of Austin Butler-esque permanent burn-in.
The highlight isn’t the animation, though the Sony Pictures Animation and Titmouse team deliver ample comic book-flavored pizzazz.
It will surprise regular readers that my favorite thing in Agent Elvis isn’t even that Elvis is accompanied by a debauched, sociopathic chimpanzee sidekick — not that I’m complaining that a debauched, sociopathic chimpanzee plays a major role in Agent Elvis.
No, the best thing about Netflix’s Agent Elvis is that no matter how outlandish and ridiculous it is, it’s all true. Ok, fine. It isn’t All true. Probably most of it isn’t true,...

Netflix’s new series “Agent Elvis” arrives March 17 and sees the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll pulling double duty as a singer by day and a secret government battling dark forces by night. And this time, it’s Matthew McConaughey voicing the King.
Accompanying the animated series is a musical soundtrack composed by Tyler Bates and Timothy Williams, who recently scored “Pearl.”
Intertwining iconic Elvis Presley syncs such as “Viva Las Vegas” and “If I Can Dream” is a score with a rock-tinged surfer vibe and plenty of guitar to underscore the action.
Says Bates, “‘Agent Elvis’ is such an amazingly hilarious show that Tim and I had to tamp down our laughter in order to work on the score, which is a musical odyssey unlike any I have previously encountered.”
Bates praises the creatives, which include co-creators Priscilla Presley and John Eddie, for encouraging the composers to be “as musically bold,...

“Elvis had kind of a sick sense of humor,” co-creator Priscilla Presley revealed at a screening for “Agent Elvis” at the Netflix Tudum Theater on March 7. She was joined by co-creator John Eddie and showrunner Mike Arnold for a special Q&a. In the animated series, Elvis Presley trades in his white jumpsuit for a jet pack when he is covertly inducted into a secret government spy program to help battle the dark forces that threaten the country he loves — all while holding down his day job as the King of Rock and Roll. Watch the trailer below.
Despite the wild storylines of each episode, Eddie revealed they’re all “based in some form of Elvis’ life. He said he always wanted to be the hero in the comic book. That was why we made it as opposed to doing a live action thing. We specifically wanted to do animated.

Given the ubiquitous pop cultural figure he became, it’s not hard to imagine that an animated show about Elvis Presley fighting crime might have been a vintage piece of kids’ breakfast cartoon fun back in the day. But strap in – because the incoming Agent Elvis is actually going to be a wild, irreverent, bloody ride for grown-up audiences, taking the King Of Rock n’ Roll (here voiced by none other than Matthew McConaughey) and pitching him into all kinds of crazy historical adventures.
“We follow this Forrest Gump-type timeline, where Elvis is involved in everything that’s ever happened in history,” John Eddie (who co-created the show along with Priscilla Presley herself) tells Empire. And one of those adventures takes him into Once Upon A Time In Hollywood territory, facing off against Charles Manson. Fitting, given that Tarantino himself was a major influence on the show. “I pitched...

Priscilla Presley is back in the spotlight for her first public appearance since the death of her daughter, Lisa Marie Presley. The 77-year-old posed on the red carpet on March 7 to support the Los Angeles premiere of Netflix's new adult animated series, "Agent Elvis," inspired by the rock 'n' roll icon, also Priscilla's ex-husband.
Additionally, Priscilla participated in a Q&a with "Agent Elvis" cocreator John Eddie and showrunner Mike Arnold, during which she, also as cocreator of the show, explained that she aimed for the series to serve as a way of "introducing Elvis to the youth today, wondering why he was so famous and to see him as a hero," per The Hollywood Reporter.
The event comes nearly two months after Lisa Marie died at age 54 on Jan. 12, which occurred only two days after her and her mother's joint appearance at the 2023 Golden Globe Awards to support "Elvis" star Austin Butler.

If you watched Baz Luhrmann's "Elvis" and thought to yourself, "this is good, but I wish Austin Butler was animated and also had a gun and was solving crimes," have we got the series for you! With Elvis fever running wild, the King of Rock and Roll has a new adult animated show due to arrive soon on Netflix, featuring Matthew McConaughey in the voiceover role he was born to play — Elvis Presley, but a super spy. The animation is sharp and snappy, the language and violence certainly aren't for kids, and despite the seemingly ridiculous premise ... "Agent Elvis" looks pretty damn awesome.
The series has been in the works since 2019, back when it was called "Agent King," but with "Agent Elvis" heading our way faster than you can put on a new pair of blue suede shoes, here's everything you need to know before the King enters the building.

Eat your heart out, Austin Butler. As wild as Baz Luhrmann's "Elvis" biopic got at certain points, it's safe to say it never quite managed to top the zaniness on display in "Agent Elvis," Netflix's new animated series that sees the King of Rock and Roll suit up to use his world-famous talents in a slightly different way. We've been following this oddity of a concept for quite some time now, with our first look at the adult-oriented and violent show last year promising the sort of alternate history mayhem that only animation can truly do justice to. Like a cross between "Archer," Hulu's "Hit-Monkey," and other similarly out-there premises, "Agent Elvis" promises to pack quite the punch.

Remember when Elvis Presley met Richard Nixon and the president gave the King a badge from the Federal Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs, the DEA’s predecessor? Netflix’s new animated comedy series “Agent Elvis” takes that surreal premise and runs with it, turning Elvis into a secret agent who travels the world battling threats to the U.S. of A. under the cover of his job as the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. It’s like “Archer,” with a Tupelo twist.
On Wednesday, Netflix revealed a trailer for the series, which premieres Friday, March 17, and announced the rest of the voice cast.

If Baz Luhrmann as a version of the King of Rock’n’Roll you’ve definitely never seen before. Check out the trailer below:
Yep, in Agent Elvis, Presley isn’t just the ‘Hound Dog’ crooner – he’s also a super spy for the American government, as quick with a John Wick-worthy pencil takedown as a shake of the hips. And just for proof you’re not hallucinating, here’s the show’s batshit official logline: “Elvis Presley trades in his jumpsuit for a jet pack when he is covertly inducted into a secret government spy program to battle the dark forces that threaten the country he loves – all while holding down his day job as the King of Rock and Roll.” So this Elvis is A Little Less Conversation, a little more action.

Elvis sightings continue as Netflix releases the trailer for a new animated original titled Agent: Elvis. This comes after the release of last year’s biopic Elvis from Baz Luhrmann, which had gained acclaim and award nominations, especially for the film’s star, Austin Butler, who hasn’t been able to shake the Elvis voice totally as of yet. This new satirical series is co-created by John Eddie and Elvis’ widow, Priscilla Presley. You can take a look at all the rock’n’roll mayhem in the trailer above.

Animation fans are eating good. Between anime being more popular and accessible than ever before, major studios experimenting with visual styles, and streaming giving an avenue to auteurs to make passion projects — even giving stop-motion the comeback it so dearly deserves — this is a great time to be a fan of one of the oldest filmmaking mediums there is.
Still, with so much animation comes the fact that not everything is special or outstanding. But every once in a while there comes a project, a movie or a film that fully understands the medium of animation's ability to deliver stories in a different reality — be it a heightened reality that feels mostly like ours, or a cartoony one. These projects remind us of how special animation is, both to deliver exquisitely artful stories or just cuckoo bananas, off-the-wall, incredibly silly yet fun experiences.
The latter is why I've been so...

Elvis Presley, the King of Rock and Roll, earned a black belt in Karate, indulged "Suspicious Minds," and got special agent status from President Nixon. Priscilla Presley will put all these together in the upcoming Agent King, an adult animated comedy series which will run on Netflix, according to Variety.
The series also merges concepts behind both Marvel and DC legends, and the mythology of The Gong Show's Chuck Barris, who may or may not have been an assassin for the CIA, according to the book and movie Confessions of a Dangerous Mind. In Agent King, Elvis will shake his pelvis during working hours but will transform into an undercover agent who keeps America safe.

Netflix is producing an interesting new animated comedy series for adults called Agent King and it will center around Elvis Presley. The series was co-created by Priscilla Presley and John Eddie, and it’s being developed by Sony Pictures Animation, Sony Pictures Television and Authentic Brands Group.
In the series, “Elvis trades in his white jumpsuit for a jet pack when he is covertly inducted into a secret government spy program to help battle the dark forces that threaten the country he loves — all while holding down his day job as the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll.”
I’m 100% on board with this series! This sounds like it could be an incredibly awesome and fun show to watch and Presley had this to say in a statement:
“From the time Elvis was a young boy he always dreamed of being the superhero fighting crime and saving the world — Agent King lets him do just that.
