Overview

• Built from roughly 59–60 hours of rediscovered negatives, the project revives concert and rehearsal material largely drawn from Elvis’s 1970 Las Vegas engagements and the 1972 tour.
• Restoration involved costly image work reportedly with Peter Jackson’s team and painstaking audio reconstruction for silent reels using lip-readers and matched sources.
• Elvis provides the narration through archival interviews, press conferences and previously unreleased tape, including a lengthy on-tour recording.
• The Toronto premiere drew an enthusiastic response, with audience members standing and dancing during numbers like “Suspicious Minds.”
• Producers have not yet secured distribution or announced a release date, and Luhrmann suggested the trove could support a follow-up project.
