Riley Keough, mum on fight for Presley estate, brings music pedigree to ‘Daisy Jones’

Actor Riley Keough — the granddaughter of rock legend Elvis Presley who is embroiled in a legal battle with grandmother Priscilla Presley over his lucrative estate — is back in the spotlight to promote her new Prime Video series, “Daisy Jones & the Six.”

While she remains mum on the brewing dispute catalyzed by the January death of her mother, Lisa Marie Presley, and opted out of an event last week for her new show, Keough is now forging ahead with her music-adjacent acting career, even joining TikTok to give it a little boost.

The “Mad Max: Fury Road” and “Zola” actor told “Entertainment Tonight” on Wednesday that despite her family’s impressive recording pedigree, she and co-star Sam Claflin had to work hard to develop their own musical abilities for “Daisy Jones,” which is an adaptation of Taylor Jenkins Reid’s 2019 breakthrough novel and stars the duo as 1970s California rockers Daisy Jones and Billy Dunne.
