Michael Shannon loved dressing up as Elvis for film

“I loved my costume: the wig, the belts were incredible. Just showing up to work every day and transforming,” Shannon said.

However, the 41-year-old says he felt rather out of his depth on the first day of shooting when he realised he had to play such an iconic American figure.

“Just diving into it and getting over the jitters (was tough). The first scene was in the Oval Office – we started with the climax of the movie because of Kevin’s schedule. But once I crossed that threshold, I had a pretty good time.”
