Netflix Orders Animated Elvis Series

Elvis Presley is about to get the world of crime all shook up in a new series for Netflix.

The streaming service has ordered a new animated action series which sees the King of Rock ‘n Roll, who died 42 years ago, reimagined as a secret agent.

“Elvis Presley trades in his white jumpsuit for a jet pack when he is covertly inducted into a secret government spy program to help battle the dark forces that threaten the country he loves — all while holding down his day job as the King Of Rock And Roll.”

Agent Presley has been created by Priscilla Presley and John Eddie who will serve as executive producers.

“From the time Elvis was a young boy he always dreamed of being the superhero fighting crime and saving the world! Agent King lets him do just that,” said Priscilla Presley. “My co-creator John Eddie and I are so excited to be working with Netflix and Sony Animation on this amazing project and getting the chance to show the world an Elvis they haven’t seen before.”
