As the dazzlingly handsome, obscenely wealthy Oxford aristocrat Felix Catton, Elordi is the radiant sun around which every eccentric inhabitant of the Saltburn estate orbits.

While most cinematic depictions of the King of Rock 'n' Roll focus strictly on stage glamour, Sofia Coppola pulls back the curtain to reveal the dark, lonely claustrophobia of Graceland.

Teaming up with legendary director Ridley Scott for this sweeping post-apocalyptic thriller, Elordi stars as Hig, a civilian pilot surviving in an abandoned airplane hangar alongside his dog and a hardened gun-toting ally.

In Paul Schrader's existential drama, Elordi portrays the youthful incarnation of legendary documentary filmmaker Leonard Fife (with Richard Gere portraying the elder artist on his deathbed).

In Sean Price Williams's picaresque, satirical journey across the fractured American landscape, Elordi pops up as Ian, an overly pretentious Hollywood star working on a solemn period drama.

The runaway global Netflix phenomenon that turned Elordi into an overnight teen sensation.
