Elvis would have enjoyed playing a federal agent in “Agent Elvis,” says Priscilla Presley, as it was the late King of Rock and Roll’s ideal profession.

In the Netflix animated action comedy series that she and John Eddie co-created, the 77-year-old actress portrays herself as the late music great who combines his day job with life as a spy. Priscilla was married to John Eddie from 1967 to 1973.

And she admitted in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that it would have been “a dream come true for Elvis because this is really what he wanted to do. He wanted to be a federal agent, and for me, I’ve always wanted to give Elvis what he wanted and never really quite made it.”

She gushed over the ‘Hound Dog’ hitmaker, who died aged 42 in 1977: “He was a beautiful human being and a very talented human being, and I want kids to see who he really was in this because he really was, he wanted to be an agent. And now he is.”

Don Cheadle, Kaitlin Olson, Johnny Knoxville, Niecy Nash, and Tom Kenny are all featured in the cast of the animated series, which features Matthew McConaughey as the voice of the iconic musician.

In the midst of the dispute over Lisa Marie Presley’s fortune, Priscilla and her granddaughter Riley Keough are apparently no longer speaking.

The late singer passed away on January 12 at the age of 54. Two weeks later, her mother Priscilla filed a petition challenging the “authenticity and validity” of an amendment made to her daughter’s trust in 2016, which replaced her and business manager Barry Siegel as trustees with Riley and the late Benjamin Keough. The trust includes her late father Elvis’ iconic home Graceland and 15% ownership of his estate.

The divide between the “Runaways” actress and her grandma is reportedly causing her “heartbreak,” yet the two are only in contact with one another via their separate legal teams.
