Michael Shannon and Kevin Spacey shine in the 1st trailer for Elvis & Nixon

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

ELVIS & NIXON tells the untold true story behind the meeting between the King of Rock ‘n Roll and President Nixon, resulting in this revealing, yet humorous moment immortalized in the most requested photograph in the National Archives. As if you needed a reason to watch Michael Shannon and Kevin Spacey act in a room together, here’s the trailer to whet your appetite!

Watch out for those steel claws!

Despite the truth behind it, it’s a pretty silly premise for a feature-length film. With that said, it looks like both actors are having a lot of fun in their respective roles. I’m not sure if I’m willing to hit up the theater for it, but something tells me that if they can keep the humor going the entire run-time, audiences may have a bit of a sleeper comedy on their hands come this April.

ELVIS & NIXON will hit theaters this April.
