Elvis' co-stars...

[franny]

I was wondering, was Elvis close to any of his male co-stars?

We always hear stories about his female co-stars, but never hear if he became good friends with any of the guy's he acted with...:hmm:

Who did Elvis enjoy acting with?

[EP75]

He was pretty close to and dated Shelly Fabares who starred with him in 3 films, Girl Happy, Spinout, and Clambake, And don't forget about Ann Margaret and Nancy Sinatra.

I forget about him! I always liked him, I loved to watch "The Courtship of Eddie's Father". Good gosh...that just aged me! :lol::lol:

[ForeverTheKing]

Maybe Bill Bixby 'cause they made a coulple of movies together....who knows if they were also friends :lol:

I liked also Gary Lockwood who played with him "Wild In The Country" and "It Happened At The World's Fair" (y)

i know he was friends with Nick Adams, were they in a movie together? maybe king Creole? or did they just meet in Hollywood?
surely Elvis like working with Walter Mattheau or Charles Bronson or even Gig YOung?

[ksimms2]

I'd say Bill Bixby for sure...since they were in more than 1 movie together I think......

Jay, she's talking about MALE co-stars.....instead of the usual female.

Nick Adams, Charles Bronson

Nick Adams was not in King Creole, nor any other Elvis movie.

Charles Bronson and Elvis were reportedly cool to each other during filming of Kid Galahad. Bronson apparently didn't like the stupid antics of Elvis and the boys on set, as he was there to do a job, not screw around.

Can't say I blame him ...

[rhythmknights]

okay, thanks for the info, Getlo :)

[franny]

Thanks, for all your answers! :notworthy

Yes, EP75 I meant male co-stars...;)

Thanks, Ale for the great pics! (y)

I don't think tough guy Charlie would like Elvis' antics and I read a biography which indicated that was the case. The biography was by W.A. Harbinson also also wrote a book about Elvis.

Whoops. Sorry Franny. I didn't see the MALE in your post until I re-read it.:lol: I would agree with Bill Bixby though.

TCB!

[Burning_Love]

I'd also say Bill Bixby.
I hear that Elvis loved filming 'It happened at the worlds fair' Perhaps thats why ?

[cameron]

Goodness !! I almost forgot Kurt Russell. Though I guess he didn't hang out with him.

[Diane]

Kurt Russell was too young at the time to "hang out with the boys" but he sure admired and never forgot Elvis.
