Jack White to play Elvis in movie

Jack White is to appear in a new film as Elvis Presley, according to reports.

The White Stripes/Raconteurs star will feature in a forthcoming parody of the 2005 Johnny Cash biopic Walk The Line.

The movie is called Walk Hard, and is expected to focus on a fictional rockabilly musician in the vein of Roy Orbison and Johnny Cash, played by John C. Reilly.

A spokesman for Jack, who has previously appeared in both Cold Mountain and Coffee And Cigarettes, yesterday confirmed he would play Elvis in the film.

The new White Stripes album, Icky Thump, is due for release in June.

Thanks TTM! Hadn't heard this news.

I saw a photo of Jack and Meg in the studio laying down tracks in the latest Rolling Stone mag. She looks pregnant.

Word!

New White Stripes album soon. Jack's new home is Nasheville...
Things are well, rock and roll is alive...

pdog,

Your words ring so true. :-)

I read that Meg lives in LA now. Do you know if she's married?

I no longer follow the gossip trail. Feel much clearer now.

peace,

Jack is married... I don't know what Meg is doing... Jack is maing lots of music, and it's all good music too. Stripes, Racs, the work with Loretta Lynne... The man is amazing... Even if it's only him, he's proving wrong all those who say no young or newer folks are doing anything for rock and roll, and he's not alone... He's just more visible.
