Wie sollte der film heißen?

1956: In April Elvis did a screentest for Hal Wallis. In May or June Elvis
should have started working on "The rainmaker".
1956: Elvis was asked to perform in "The girl can't help it". Jayne
Mansfield stayed with Elvis for some days in September but when she phoned
Parker and mentioned she and Elvis had worked out a deal, Parker simply said
it would cost $50,000 to sing a song.
1956: Associated Press reported on October 9 that 20th century Fox was
planning a movie in which Elvis would sing and Jayne Mansfield would show
her "talent". Title of this film, to start early 1957, is "The love maniac".
1956: November 27 it was announced that Elvis would star in 20th Century Fox
film "The way to gold" for which filming would start December 17.
1957: In January it was announced Elvis would start the same month with
"Rodeo" for Paramount.
1957: Also in January it was announced Elvis would star in the Paramount
film "Sing you sinners".
1957: During filming of "Jailhouse rock" for MGM, Robert Mitchum offered
Elvis a role in "Thunder Road".
This deal fell through because Elvis was drafted. For the same reason Elvis
did not star in "The defiant ones".
1958: A film was made of "The singin' idol" with Tommy Sands but the makers
originally wanted Elvis.
1958/1959: Films reported to have wanted Elvis as the main star: "All in a
day", "Rope law" and "West side story". Elvis could not star as he was in
the Army.
1960: "Wild in the country" for 20th Century Fox with Jean Simmons (the film
was made in 1961 with Hope Lange)
1960: "The Missisippi Gambler" & "Riverboat story" (which may be the same
moviewith different titles).
1960: According to The New Musical Express dated November 8, 1960 Elvis
would play a jazz-pianist in a movie titled "Solo".
1960: "The live wire" and "Sweet bird of youth" are two more titles in which
Elvis was to be the star.
1960: Straight after "G.I. blues" Elvis was to start filming "Remnants of
the old west" for Hal Wallis.

Zitat von MARIE

Wie sollte der film heißen?

ich meinte jetzt einen ganz anderen film als den von eva genannten.
(ich hab das vor einiger zeit mal im westernthread gepostet:)
THE TRUE STORY OF JESSE JAMES aus dem jahr 1957. ich hatte in einem programmheft zum film gelesen, dass regisseur nicholas ray für die rolle des jesse james ursprünglich elvis besetzen wollte. für mich klang das sehr plausibel (ray hat schließlich "rebel without a cause" mit james dean gedreht), aber ich hab da nie genauere infos dazu gefunden.
deswegen dachte ich, dass da vielleicht in dem von eva genannten buch was drinsteht...
