Flamboyant movie writer and director Baz Luhrmann, best known for dazzling films like "Moulin Rogue," "Romeo + Juliet," and "The Great Gatsby," has yet another anticipated movie-musical coming premiering this summer, and it's depicting one of America's most famous and idolized musicians of all time.
Lisa Marie Presley took to Instagram to open up about her thoughts on Luhrmann's "Elvis" film, breaking her social media silence. Before praising the film for its "unprecedented" depiction of her father in a film, Presley addressed how she's coping since her son's death.
"I haven't posted in quite some time because there really isn't much to say, as I am and will forever be mourning the loss of my son," Presley penned. "Navigating through this hideous grief that absolutely destroyed and shattered my heart and my soul into almost nothing has swallowed me whole. Not much else aside from my other 3 children gets my time and attention anymore." She also mentioned that it's heartbreaking that Benjamin isn't here to see the film because "he would have absolutely loved it as well."
In addition to her late son, Presley is a mother to actor Riley Keough and twin girls Harper and Finley.
