Austin Butler's Looks

He's starring in Baz Luhrmann's Elvis biopic. This thread is to discuss his looks and sexual attractiveness. According to the Elvis thread he's had cosmetic surgery including to his nose. What are your thoughts on his looks?

The result of being laid upon by Vanessa Hudgens

R3, I guess we have no doubts he’s straight

Does one need a LPSG account to see R3?

The plastic surgery was a mistake. Nothing wrong with his original nose.

Cute but generic standard-issue blond twink. Looks like a lesbian as Elvis.

Elvis had a unique male beauty. No actor will match it, no matter how talented.

He’s striking, if unremarkable.

There is no need for him and Chord Overstreet to exist simultaneously.

He has a long goat face whereas young Elvis had a round face.

None. No thoughts whatsoever.

I'm just surprised they picked someone with such a delicate, feminine beauty. He looks like a drag king in the trailer and can't sing, either. Elvis was such a masculine looking guy. I think Baz has really fucked up with his one.

Unless they are born ugly, plastic surgery rarely improves a man’s face.

Austin as we would like him.

Crucified?

Rumored to be playing Feyd in Dune.

para di mabilad sa araw yung mga nagmomob?

ugh. He must have fantastic agent who somebody owes a lot of favors.

Not what I expected, but I remain openminded and trust the process.

Does Tom Hanks need to be in everything? You can literally see him acting in the trailer. Hard pass.

He's a standard Disney/Nickelodeon twink. Nothing unique about him. He had a Ken doll gayface until he had his nose done and dyed his hair black to seem more unique. He looks nothing like Elvis who was a cornfed farmboy from Mississippi who struggled to keep them fat genes in check.

I don't understand the unnecessary nose job. If he insisted, he should have just got a very subtle, more refined version of his natural nose. One of those barely there tweaks. Instead he went for the Christy Turlington.

Thanks to all the Datalounge Sour Grapes Society members who replied. Austin is certainly not all that and a bag of chips.

He has that thing where you get a nose job and are left with an overlong philtrum. Kim K has it too.

Is he the poor sap who had to have sex with Baz Luhrman to get the part of Elvis?

^ hideous image! Did he have a 'touch' of botox in his top lip for this job?

Did he graduate from elementary school?

With his dark hair he reminds me of a young John Travolta

Does he think he's the new Brad Pitt or something?

Something fuckable at least...

Today is his birthday. He's 31.

Awwww my husband looked like this 30 years ago. Very pretty. He's still tall, slim but now graying...bless him.

He definitely had a nose job and replaced his blobby nose with a thinner, shorter one, but in the process got a massive philtrum.

He's still dating that fame whore Kaia Gerber, who dumped the giant Jacob Elordi for him.

R54, Yes, but that philtrum looks good on Austin.

Moreover, Elvis's philtrum was pronounced.

Hmmm… Top lip looks different, as well — and maybe a jaw implant?

R58, Enlarge my photo at r56. I believe some post-shoot addition of "lip-liner"---or maybe before the Red Carpet for real---has been added to "shape" that Cupid's Bow.

His face is too long. Reminds me of a goat. Elvis has a round face.

R61, perhaps R60 remembers fat Elvis?

Perhaps so. But that is not the Elvis Austin portrays (but for the Coda with "Unchained Melody," and then the prosthetics are so superb that audiences have difficulty discerning when the scene switches to the real Elvis).

Maybe r60 should watch the movie?

Shirtless video for magazine shoot.

Norwegian actor Henrik Holm looks like if Austin Butler's plastic surgery has better results.

I'll take Austin, TYVM, R65.

R67 He must have been popular with the HW homos... I mean honchos to go from some low budget fantasy series to leading man movie star.

He got ahead solely on his talent!
