The director's recent film, 'Elvis,' featured a mash-up of Elvis Presley's 'Viva Las Vegas' with Spears' 2003 hit 'Toxic,' but the song has yet to be officially released. Baz Luhrmann says that he’s working on releasing the fan-favorite “Viva Las Vegas” remix from his recent film Elvis. “There’s a lot of love, a lot of intense love for the Britney/Elvis track in the movie, and it’s my commitment to try [to release the song],” Luhrmann told Rolling Stone while promoting his Bombay Sapphire-sponsored 60th birthday party over the weekend. Luhrmann confirms to Rolling Stone that an official version of the remix is “fully done,” though he adds that he’s “just trying to unravel it,” citing a sign-off from the parties involved. “It’s my passion and commitment to try to get all parties involved in getting it completed and out there for the fans,” he says, “as I know Britney herself and Elvis are, in so many ways, connected in their own different journeys.” If the “Toxic” remix of “Viva Las Vegas” finally sees the light of day, it’ll mark the second release from Spears since her conservatorship was ended. The singer collaborated with another famous music icon, Elton John, on the duet “Hold Me Closer” last month.

Baz Luhrmann explains why Harry Styles wasn’t cast in the ‘Elvis’ biopic starring Austin Butler: “Harry is a really talented actor. I would work on something with him, the real issue is, he’s Harry Styles. He's already an icon." So, Rolling Stones Biopic with Harry playing Mick jagger when? https://t.co/wr8q7hU99o
