Elvis Presley remains to this day one of the most iconic and acclaimed artists of all time; his influence has never been lost on anyone, and this new documentary follows a road trip exploring his early roots and how he came to be The King of Rock and Roll, focusing on the way America itself declined as he rose to stardom.

What’s clear from this trailer is that there won’t just be one point of view on display; there are certainly less positive opinions of him on display, which means we’ll hopefully get a more balanced look at the world’s biggest star. Also featuring interviews with celebrities such as Lana Del Rey, Alec Bladwin and Ethan Hawke, The King looks to be an insightful and engaging documentary.

The King does not currently have a UK release date.
