Austin Butler

Austin Butler was in his early twenties when he joined the cast of the play Death of the Author at the Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles. Then he joined the cast of the TV series Arrow in the recurring role of Chase. In 2018, Butler made his Broadway debut opposite Denzel Washington and David Morse in The Iceman Cometh. In 2019, Quentin Tarantino cast him as Tex Watson, a fictional version of a Manson family member, in Once Upon a Time…in Hollywood. In the same year, he was chosen by Baz Luhrmann to portray rock and roll legend Elvis Presley in the biopic Elvis. Butler’s early background in music – he taught himself to play the guitar at the age of 13 and the piano at 16 – came in handy in his portrayal of the music legend. He received his first Golden Globe nomination for his performance in the Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture-Drama category. He plays Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen in Dune: Part Two releasing next year and costars with Michael Shannon and Tom Hardy in the upcoming The Bikeriders.
