Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis is headed for an at-home release on August 9 via PVOD.

The Warner Bros. release costs $19.99 to rent for 48 hours or $24.99 to purchase. At this time, Elvis is not heading to HBO Max like originally expected, largely in part due to the recent changes at the streaming service.

The film dives deeper into the dynamic between Presley and Parker, whose relationship spanned over 20 years. From Presley’s rise to fame to his unprecedented stardom, against the backdrop of the evolving cultural landscape and loss of innocence in America, one of the most significant and influential people in Presley’s life was Priscilla Presley (Olivia DeJonge).

Elvis also stars Helen Thomson (Top of the Lake: China Girl) as Elvis’ mother Gladys, Richard Roxburgh (Moulin Rouge!) as Elvis’ father Vernon, Luke Bracey (Point Break) as Jerry Schilling, Natasha Bassett (Hail, Caesar!) as Dixie Locke, David Wenham (The Lord of the Rings Trilogy) as Hank Snow, Kelvin Harrison Jr. (The Trial of the Chicago 7) as B.B. King, Xavier Samuel (Adore) as Scotty Moore, and Kodi Smit-McPhee (The Power of the Dog) as Jimmie Rodgers Snow.

Indiewire was first to report.
