Elvis Presley

Elvis Presley (1935–1977) was an American singer, actor, and cultural phenomenon whose influence reshaped music, fashion, and film in the 20th century. Known as the King of Rock ’n’ Roll, Presley blended rhythm and blues, country, and gospel into a sound that electrified audiences and defined a generation. His magnetic stage presence and natural charisma translated seamlessly to the screen, where he starred in box-office hits such as Jailhouse Rock (1957), King Creole (1958), and Viva Las Vegas (1964). Beyond fame, Elvis embodied a new kind of modern celebrity—rebellious, tender, and endlessly imitated. His legacy endures not only in music but in the vibrant iconography of his film posters, which capture the energy and allure of an era when rock and cinema became one.
