The new "Elvis" film is not based on her book, nor did Luhrmann read it, by his account (although he says researchers presented him with notes from that and many other key Presley-related books).
Elvis is thought to have had around $5million at the time of his death, which nowadays would be an estimated $20million, according to StyleCaster. Despite having millions in the bank, it's thought that the amount was significantly less than what he earned throughout his career. In reality, Presley was said to be earning $1 million per movie in 1965, according to the Los Angeles Times, while other notable actors like Cleopatra star Elizabeth Taylor and future The 67uxRw.
