This will either be the best or worst thing ever...

Jack White is to appear in a new film as Elvis Presley, according to reports.

The White Stripes/Raconteurs star will feature in a forthcoming parody of the 2005 Johnny Cash biopic Walk The Line.

The movie is called Walk Hard, and is expected to focus on a fictional rockabilly musician in the vein of Roy Orbison and Johnny Cash, played by John C. Reilly.

A spokesman for Jack, who has previously appeared in both Cold Mountain and Coffee And Cigarettes, yesterday confirmed he would play Elvis in the film.

The new White Stripes album, Icky Thump, is due for release in June.

Since the movie's a comedy, this'll be pretty good.

Jack White in a sequin jumpsuit, though? I don't know.

you guys realize that this will be a relatively minor role, right?
