But now, Aint It Cool News has an exclusive <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aintitcool.com\/node\/38925\" target=\"_blank\">interview<\/a> with Paul Giamatti &#8211; whose production company is helping Coscarelli develop the sequel and who will appear in the film as Elvis&#8217; agent Col. Tom Parker &#8211; in which he reveals that Ron Perlman is interested in taking over the role of the King.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently, the production and Perlman are trying to find a time in everyone&#8217;s schedule to go make the film. Giamatti suspects that cameras could be rolling sometime next spring. In teh interview, Giamatti also discusses his take on Elvis&#8217;s agent, Col. Tom. It&#8217;s an interesting interview, well worth checking out.<\/p>\n<p>As to Perlman as Elvis&#8230; I&#8217;m not so sure. The Hellboy films have shown us that he can act through makeup and knows how to keep a light comedic tone. There&#8217;s something about him though that doesn&#8217;t quite sell the concept to me. Admitedly, I could be hung up on the fact that he is not Bruce Campbell playing the role. Personally, I think a better choice would be Kurt Russell, who has already played a young Elvis in a 1979 television movie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\">Like many, I was disappointed when Bruce Campbell announced that he was not going to be part of Don Coscarelli&#8217;s Bubba Nosferatu, the follow up to Campbell and Coscarelli&#8217;s elderly-Elvis-fighting-a-mummy collaboration Bubba HoTep.
