Drake Milligan, recalling for SMOOTH Radio how playing Elvis Presley on a TV movie changed his life, as noted in the station's March 21, 2024 online edition.

And I got cast in "Sun Records" when I was 17, still in high school, and through an open call audition, me and my mum drove up and I had to kind of fight my way in there. I was too young to really audition but fought my way still. And then I got a call two weeks later that I had the part. And since I had applied to college, I kind of just said, 'Hey, I'm going to treat this as my college experience'. And I went and did that movie.It definitely changed my life.
