Jack White To Play Elvis Presley

The White Stripes and The Raconteurs’ Jack White is reportedly in line to play Elvis in an upcoming comedy.

IGN.com have reported the unusual casting choice will be appearing in a parody of recent musical bio-pics, with a current title of ‘Walk Hard’

The film will spoof recent films such as ‘Walk The Line’ and ‘Ray’, with John C Reilly (‘Gangs of New York’, ‘Talladega Nights’) starring as a Johnny Cash-esque fictional character called Dewey Cox.

White has recently had small roles in 'Cold Mountain' and 'Coffee & Cigarettes', as well as being immortalised on ‘The Simpsons’.
