Sam Claflin Admits To Fanboying Over Riley Keough After Hearing Elvis Song: ‘Holy Crap, That’s Your Granddad’

Like most other people would, Sam Claflin couldn’t help but fanboy over working with a member of the Presley family.

Laughing that the remarks had been taken “out of context,” Claflin explains, “Me and Riley, once we were shooting in a diner, the diner scene, and I heard an Elvis song playing and I had that moment… I think that was the first moment because she doesn’t sort of carry that pressure with her, if that makes sense.

Elsewhere in the chat, Keough says when asked whether it was cathartic to step into the role of Daisy, given she’s from a very rock and roll family: “It was, you know, I had a lot of experience in terms of like, I grew up around a lot of musicians. I’ve been on tour, I’ve slept on a bus. I know what that world is like.
