August 16, 1977 will always be a somber day.
Elvis Presley, the king of rock ‘n roll, departed from this world at the young age of 42.
Even though many years have passed since his passing, there have been lingering inquiries about what his life would have been like if he had lived to this day.
This inspired an artist to take on the challenge of envisioning Elvis at 86 years old.
Elvis Presley stands out as an iconic figure in the music industry.
His music, charisma, and artistry serve as enduring sources of inspiration for aspiring musicians.
The enigmatic life of the artist continues to captivate audiences, leading to books, films, and series being produced about his remarkable journey.
Speculations about Elvis’s life persist, particularly due to the secrecy surrounding his autopsy report.
The autopsy findings remain confidential until 2027, a decision made by Elvis’s father, Vernon, to safeguard his son’s legacy.
Vernon Presley aimed to preserve Elvis’s image as a legend rather than focusing on his struggles, as reported by Expressen.
Speculations about the Star’s Life
It has been 44 years since Elvis passed away, yet many still struggle to come to terms with his absence.
Annually, there are speculations about whether Elvis might still be alive, living away from the public eye.
A few years back, fans strongly believed they had found the star alive.
During a TV broadcast from Elvis’s residence, an individual appeared, sparking speculation that it could be Elvis himself.
This Is How Elvis Would Look Today
This curiosity has fueled discussions on how Elvis might appear today if he were still alive.
The initiative began when Sachs Media in Florida collaborated with Phojoe to create aged images of iconic personalities, including Elvis Presley, imagining them at 86 years old.
While primarily focused on developing images for missing persons notifications, Phojoe also uses their technology to envision how legendary figures like Elvis Presley, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, and John Lennon might have aged.
Ron Sachs described the work as a tribute, stating, “With this series of images, we hope to honor and evoke some of the magic they brought to millions of their fans. Even as we contemplate what great new contributions they may have still had to offer,” as quoted by Ultimate Classic Rock.
The reconstructed photo of Elvis depicts him with gray hair and fitting wrinkles for his age.
Here’s the artist’s depiction of how Elvis might look today:
