Elvis seem strong in anglophone countries. In other countries so - so. In italy is opening at #1 with 800k-1M euros in 5 days weekend. In spain it opened only at #3 under both dinosaurs and Top Gun. In France seems good, the first day it made 400-450k euros

You're not wrong. On Spotify Elvis playlist This Is Elvis Presley has 900K followers. A lot. Just for comparison This is Madonna has 540K followers, This is Whitney Houston has 490K followers and This is Nicki Minaj has 700K followers. So his audience is not only 70+ people lol. This of course doesn't mean a young person listening to him has to be interested to go to theater, pay a ticket to see 3 hours of movie about his life, cause there are already a lot of movies, documentaries free on youtube, but not only he's a cultural icon but his music is still very popular. Two of his greatest albums are long seller and classics on the Uk album charts. One of them this week is at #39 on the album chart. The only collections upon it are from Queen, Abba, Elton John, Beatles and Micheal Jackson. So people really still stream that stuff.

No doubt Elvis will have an oldier audience than a blockbuster but you all are acting like this is Downton Abbey or a traditional Johnny Cash Biopic directed by James Mangold. It's still a Luhrmann movie. Butler is not a big star but he has his young audience from nickleodon and mtv series and the promotional stuff it's not that moldy. A traditional Elvis biopic right now would make the same numbers as Respect/Aretha, and Aretha did what it did cause she died not that much time ago, in 20 years would have been very different. I'm 31 and i went to watch Elvis only because is Elvis by Luhrmann, so some of a younger audience will be there and they can make a difference even if not its most bold audience.

Disney plus will release a 6 episodes version of Australia at the end of the year. No one has reprised this news from almost a mnoth ago but i read it in an interview with Luhrmann on this australian newspaper Luhrmann has re-edited Australia, a film that succeeded in many parts of the world but was critically savaged, into a six-part series called Faraway Downs that will stream on Disney + later this year. https://www.smh.com.au/culture/movies/the-great-persuader-baz-luhrmann-on-his-biggest-gamble-yet-20220330-p5a9j8.html

Even if it made 3B dollars a lot of people hate Avatar too, you can be sure about that. What i mean his movies expect for Australia have been big at the box office (and always wit great legs) so he has an audience who love what this movie seems to be. It helps he's not that profolific, always around 5 years at least beetween movies (9 since the last greatsby) , so his audience always has appetite for a new thing.

People will easily love this. They loved everything this director has made expect for australia, that was trying too much to be dramatic and serious. According to the reviews this is full of colour, with a lot of music and kinda of fast and crazy. People like when this director make this kind of thing.

2nd June here is a national holiday so they anticipate JW cause I guess the industry didn't trust about Top Gun appeal in the second week and they want a strong movie for that holiday. They were right, a 350K sunday on 450 screens is kinda of mid. But the last two Mission impossible here made around 5M euros, so that's Tom Cruise audience here apparently and it's not that big nowadays.
