Austin Butler threw himself so fully into his Oscar-nominated performance as Elvis that his co-star Tom Hanks (who played Elvis' manager, Colonel Tom Parker) was concerned about his mental health after the movie – and offered him his next role to keep him busy.
"You have immersed yourself so deeply in Elvis that, for your mental health, it would be wise to go straight into something else," Hanks reportedly told Butler (via The Times). "If you just jump off the train, you might have emotional whiplash... And, you know, I’ve got this thing I’m producing."
