  • Baz Luhrmann, director of the 2022 biopic 'Elvis', hints at a new project using previously unseen concert footage of Elvis Presley.
  • The footage originates from the documentaries 'That's The Way It Is' and 'Elvis on Tour', filmed in the early 1970s but never fully released.
  • Luhrmann's announcement at the Met Gala sparks anticipation for the concert film, which could include extensive archival material.
  • The potential release could follow the success of the 'Elvis' biopic, which garnered eight Oscar nominations and significant box office returns.
  • No definitive release date for the new project; Luhrmann suggests it may still be some time before the film is ready for public viewing.
