Julia Morris has thrilled fans by sharing her iconic Elvis alter ego – and she is giving Baz Luhrmann a run for his money.

The comedian posted the throwback of her donning a costume inspired by the King of Rock for a sketch she worked on.

She placed the picture next to a promotional image of Baz’s Elvis, played by Austin Butler, and joked in the caption: “It’s not about who clearly wore it best… but it’s ALL about the glorious work of the brilliant @bazluhrmann & his killer team.”

Who do you think rocked it best?

Julia also shared hilarious details about the character she developed for 1995’s Full Frontal with Australian writer Doug MacLeod.

It turns out she was trying to channel Elvis’ fictional wanna-be sister.

“Loved @elvismovie so much jx (my photo from Full Frontal 1995 in a hilarious sketch, written by the wonderful Doug MacLeod, “Elvis’ Sister” ),” she shared.

The 54-year-old’s comment section was quickly bombarded by fans who couldn’t get enough of the side-by-side comparison.

One wrote: “Yes I agree a brilliant movie, to be honest though that shot of you as Elvis Sister!!!!I can not tell who’s who 🤷‍♀️,” and another commented on their likeness: “Now we know why you’re so talented Lady. Elvis is obvs your Grand Daddy! The likeness is remarkable to say the least🕺🏻Love it! Can’t wait to see the movie. ❤️xxx.”

“Elvistine! 😍🙌🏻👏🏻,” penned another follower.

There is no denying that Julia looks good in a suit, especially after she donned her deep blue pantsuit to open the Logies.

She gave a hilarious speech that didn’t leave a dry eye (from laughing too much) in the room.

“What sort of night do we have ahead of us when we let a loose unit like me open the show? I don’t know,” she warned.

“They have gone for 30 per cent less… a rich white woman.”

The mother-of-two didn’t leave any topic untouched as she made a swipe against the gender pay gap and tried to avoid getting cancelled.

“The Logies team has not got a man opening the show… No, they pushed the man opening the show… That is gone and they have gone for 30 per cent less… a rich white woman,” she said.

“We’re finally talking about this on the table in our industry guys; wage disparity between men and women. It’s time. Am I right?”
