on the subject of elvis presley i genuinely think the funniest crossover event that never happened was when i learned he was apparently a huge fan of the godfather and REALLY wanted to be in the film can u even IMAGINE

#elvis and serpico in the same film. peak kino.#lion.txt #i think he was vying for tom hagen initially but rly wanted to play THE godfather #i don't think it would have worked as well but at the same time we never rly got the full picture on what elvis could have rly been capable #of as an actor because his image and the colonel were constantly holding him back #altho if u ask me elvis as johnny fontaine could have been so iconic #even tho he's supposed to be a frank sinatra stand in #elvis presley #the godfather #two tags that are absolutely insane when u put them side by side #tbh i still think it's a travesty elvis didn't get to be in a star is born opposite barbra streisand #there are so many reasons to actively hate colonel tom parker and for me that is absolutely on the list #and it's getting longer every day #literally fuck that guy lmao #he truly is my villain origin story(tm)
