The full tracklist has been revealed for the soundtrack to Baz Luhrmann’s upcoming EPiC: Elvis Presley In Concert film – see it below.
The movie is the director’s follow-up to his 2022 biopic Elvis and it is set to feature long-lost footage of the legendary singer’s Las Vegas residency in 1970, as well as remastered 16mm footage from the 1972 film Elvis On Tour and 8mm film from the Graceland archives.
It premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival last year and is set to be released in IMAX theatres on February 20 before a general cinematic release a week later.
Now, Sony and RCA Records have confirmed the full tracklist for the film’s soundtrack, and it features remixes of classic live recordings and new mixes and medleys of songs, including a PNAU remix of ‘Don’t Fly Away’ and Jamieson Shaw mixes of ‘In The Ghetto’ and ‘Love Me’.

Luhrmann came across unseen footage from Elvis On Tour and Elvis: That’s The Way It Is with a view to using it in his biopic. 68 boxes of 35mm and 8mm footage were found in the Warner Bros. film archives in salt mines in Kansas, but as the footage didn’t have any sound, Luhrmann’s team restored and synced it to existing audio sources.
Discussing the film in January, Luhrmann told Deadline, “I wouldn’t call it a documentary, or a concert film; our aim here is to make something new in the Elvis canon … to bring something to the screen that befits the magnitude of Elvis as a performer but also offers deeper revelations of his humanity and inner life.”
Luhrmann’s 2022 movie explored the life of Presley, played by Austin Butler, with Tom Hanks playing his manager, Colonel Tom Parker. It became a critical and commercial success, grossing over $288million and receiving eight Oscar nominations. In 2023, Luhrmann confirmed plans for a stage adaptation.
NME gave Elvis a four-star review, calling the movie “a big-screen epic we can’t help falling in love with” and summarising: “The overwhelming feeling is of sadness, but strangely admiration too. Even at his lowest, Elvis’ commitment to putting on a show for his fans was total. If only Parker had been as loyal, he might still be on stage now.”
