Eric Bana to play The King in Elvis and Nixon

October 25, 2011 by Simon Miraudo 0 Comments

Eric Bana and Danny Huston will play The King and Tricky Dick respectively in Cary Elwes‘ directorial debut Elvis and Nixon. Now that is a sentence!

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Bana will executive produce the flick, which follows Elvis Presley’s visit to The White House in 1970. It was during this visit that Elvis – hilariously – requested he be made “Federal Agent-at-Large” in the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs.

Elwes is best known as the star of The Princess Bride and more recently as an unconvincing killer in the Saw movies.

Discuss: It’s so crazy it just might work.
