For nearly two decades, Elvis Presley practiced the art of karate with skill and enormous dedication. The discipline brought a thrilling new physicality to his film and stage performances, but fans have never before had the chance to see the King in authentic action. A collector’s edition set from Madacy Entertainment available this Fall provides exactly that opportunity, bringing together footage from Elvis’ never-completed martial arts epic The New Gladiators along with insightful commentary by fellow-enthusiast Wayne Carman who was with Elvis when much of the footage was shot. This exciting NEW collectors set also includes an informative booklet that explores the singer’s relationship with the art of karate, an evocative photo-retrospective and six collectable postcards. Elvis Presley Gladiators – The 1974 Elvis Karate Legacy Project will be available at Graceland in the fall.
