@ tyrone
Vor ein paar Jahren erzählte Charlie, dass Elvis diesen Film selbst finanzieren wollte ! |

Interessant, war das wieder so ein geplanter Karate Film, ähnlich Gladiators, nur mit Story?

Interessante frage.
Habe vorhin auch noch gegoogelt und da entdeckte ich diese Seite: http://meinelvis.npage.de/geplante-filmobjekte.html Da stehen eine menge Filme die er machen sollte ob das so stimmt wag ich zu bezweifeln. Aber wirkliche antworten wieso und warum findet man da nicht. Das nur so nebenbei gemerkt |

Vllcht. findest Du hier noch Info´s
http://www.elvis-collectors.com/foru...hp?f=1&t=57329 I think that's the movie where Elvis was to have been an ex-CIA agent who runs a karate school. He finds out his best friend has been murdered and decides to seek revenge. Rick Husky discussed the project with Elvis and he was going to write a script for it. Elvis decided to make the karate documentary instead. The date 1977 is wrong. Collectors.com |

..Elvis was almost obsessed with the idea of making a high-quality martial arts movie, and in 1974 filming started on his "The New Gladiators" project (conceived by Ed Parker's student George Waite, who was also close to Elvis), which Elvis was financing, starring in, and narrating. The film was supposed to depict karate competitors and their training, leading up to tournaments (there were a few tournaments scheduled to be covered by this documentary) around the world. A segment of Elvis training and showing some chi exercises was shot on 9/16/74 and is the source of about 40 minutes of film of Elvis in that custom gi (as well as the stills), a snippet of which can be seen in the 1981 movie "This Is Elvis". Photos from that session were seen in the People magazine issue which marked Elvis' 40th birthday in January, 1975, and gave more exposure to Elvis as a proponent of karate. The project was never realized, nor was another project conceived of by Ed Parker and Elvis, which I believe was entitled "Billy Easter". In this movie, as the treatment goes, Elvis was to have played an ex-CIA operative who runs a karate school when his friend is murdered by drug dealers, against which Elvis goes seeking revenge. This role (non-singing, which Elvis desperately wanted to do) sounds similar to about 8 million movies that have since come out... Geändert von burroughs (23.03.2013 um 18:32 Uhr) |
