We already knew Matthew McConaughey had been cast to voice the title character on Agent Elvis, and due to this new trailer for the Netflix sequence—the primary grownup animated undertaking from Spider-Man: Into the Spider Verse studio Sony Pictures Animation—we’ve were given a fair higher thought of what to anticipate from this mash-up of rock idol and undercover agent goofballery.
Additionally, the soundtrack means that McConaughey (whose “Elvis voice” sounds similar to Matthew McConaughey’s voice, doesn’t it? Type of the other of an Austin Butler situation?) gained’t be doing his personal making a song, if the inclusion of a undeniable vintage Elvis music right here is any indication. Thanks, thankyouverymuch.
