G-Eazy is the latest star to have his name thrown into a hat of people up to play Elvis Presley in a new biopic.

The biopic, led by Baz Luhrmann, is in pre-production stages, and apparently stars such as Ansel Elgort, Miles Teller, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Harry Styles, and Austin Butler have also declared their interest in the part.

TMZ report that G-Eazy is the latest star to throw his name into the hat, and has reportedly been in talks with Warner Bros., and the biopic director.

Last month the rapper shared an Instagram post with lyrics from Presley's "Don't Be Cruel".
