Austin Butler Hired Dialect Coach to UNLEARN 'Elvis' Accent

That smile, those killer abs, sweating it out, and kissing a puppy? The photo shoot capturing what's being called Austin's radical reset, going from Elvis to a criminal and everything in between. You know, I'm very shy. What did you get me into? In his new film, Caught Stealing, Austin plays a former MLB player who finds himself in the middle of a gang war. He gained 25 pounds with the goal of building a, quote, baseball butt. I'm so silly. Like, what am I doing? Yeah, Austin goes all out for his roles. In fact, he was so method playing Elvis, he actually had to hire a dialect coach to unlearn the accent. At this point, I keep asking people, is this my voice? In the mag, On Stand September 2nd, the 34-year-old also details some bizarre health scares, from getting a grain-of-rice-sized piece of glass stuck in his foot that caused him to walk with his toes curled for eight months, to a migraine that led to temporary blindness. Quote, it felt like the life was being sucked from my body. I actually genuinely thought I was dying. Physically, it was brutal. That's Austin today, looking dapper at the London premiere of his crime caper out August 29th. He posed with co-star Zoe Kravitz, both matching in classic black. And when it comes to Austin's Masters of the Air co-star Callum Turner, his fiancée Dua Lipa is opening up about intensely falling for her man of nearly two years. The Harper's Bazaar icon's cover girl says she used to spend a lot of time being guarded or protecting my heart. But now that she's happier than ever, it feels like I'm doing a disservice by not talking about it. You seem so happy in all areas. How do you describe this moment? Perfect.
