Olivia DeJonge Opens Up About Her Transformation Into Priscilla Presley for 'Elvis'

Olivia DeJonge adds some sparkle to the premiere of her new movie, Elvis, held at the TIFF Bell Lightbox Theater in Toronto, Canada on Friday (June 17).

The 24-year-old actress walked the red carpet with co-star Austin Butler and the film’s director, Baz Luhrmann.

In a new interview, Olivia opened up about playing Priscilla Presley on the big screen.

“Priscilla has this effortless vulnerability and this effortless softness about her,” she told WWD. “Prior to the job, I was quite — not brash, brash isn’t the right word, but maybe a little flighty and a little skittish. I’m somebody who was sort of bouncing around.”

Olivia added that she kept a journal with photos and old magazine clippings of Priscilla‘s style in that era.

“Maybe it sounds a bit lame, but part of that process was making collages and sticking them in journals, just looking at the images and really familiarizing myself with the way that she held herself and how she presented herself to the world.”

Elvis opens in theaters on June 24.

FYI: Olivia wore an Elie Saab dress. Austin wore Tom Ford.
