Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis Presley biopic “Elvis” shook up theaters with an estimated $30.5 million in weekend ticket sales, but — in a box-office rarity — “Elvis” tied “Top Gun: Maverick,” which also reported $30.5 million, for No. 1 in theaters.

Tom Parker, and, in his own mind, there would have never been a Col. Tom Parker without Elvis,” says Hanks. “But that terror of my whole career feeling like it was riding on this film, that’s exactly what Elvis was feeling,” says Butler.
