Austin Butler is clearing the air about the time he referred to his former longtime girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens as simply a "friend." The viral moment occurred during The Hollywood Reporter's 2023 Actor Roundtable — when the 'Elvis' actor shared he was encouraged to play the King of Rock 'n' Roll through "a friend." At the time, social media was in a tizzy because it was clear he was talking about Hudgens, who shared the similar story during Live with Kelly and Ryan while discussing THR's casting article announcing Butler's role as Elvis.
Austin Butler is teaming up with Darren Aronofsky for his next feature. Hot off his creepy villain turn in 'Dune: Part Two,' Butler is set to next star in the Aronofsky crime thriller 'Caught Stealing.' Acquired by Sony and based on the book by Charlie Huston, the film "follows Hank Thompson, a burned-out former baseball player, as he's unwittingly plunged into a wild fight for survival in the downtown criminal underworld of '90s NYC."
