Netflix released a new adult animated series called Agent Elvis, and it depicts the King Of Rock And Roll as he battles villains that threaten the country. It’s a beautifully animated show with an amazing voice cast of actors such as Matthew McConaughey, Priscilla Presley, Kaitlin Olson, Johnny Knoxville, Niecy Nash, Tom Kenny, Don Cheadle, Ed Helms, Simon Pegg, Christina Hendricks, and many others.

If you made it to the end of the first episode, you might’ve noticed a memoriam appear on the screen to a person named Lisa Marie Presley just before it cuts to the credits. Who is she? Of course, you can count on us at Netflix Life to answer this question.

Dedications are usually placed at the end of an episode of a show or right before a movie’s credits as a way of honoring and thanking someone who was connected to the show and recently passed away.

Agent Elvis centers around Elvis Presley, and as you can see, the dedication card is to a person named Lisa Marie Presley. Are they related in some way? Yes, Lisa Marie Presley was the child of the famous singer and actor. Her mother, Priscilla Presley, is one of the show’s creators and voices herself in the series.

Lisa followed in her father’s footsteps and became a singer. She released three studio albums: To Whom It May Concern (2003), Now What (2005) and Storm & Grace. She also released several singles, including duets with her late father from songs he released before he passed away.

She was previously in relationships with celebrities such as actors Danny Keough and Nicolas Cage and musicians Michael Jackson and Michael Lockwood. Through her relationship with Keough, she had two kids, actress Riley Keough and Benjamin Storm Keough. She later married Lockwood and gave birth to fraternal twin girls.

Sadly, just two days after appearing at the 80th Golden Globe Awards, the singer/songwriter suffered cardiac arrest while at her home and passed away on Jan. 12, 2023, at the age of 54 years old. A public memorial service took place on Jan. 22 where former Memphis mayor A. C. Wharton, Guns ‘N’ Roses lead singer Axl Rose, The Smashing Pumpkins lead singer Billy Corgan, Baz Luhrmann, Austin Butler, singer Alanis Morissette, and others were in attendance.

Since Agent Elvis is about Elvis Presley, we figured there would be a sweet tribute for Lisa Marie Presley somewhere in the series. The dedication card reads, “Dedicated to the loving memory of Lisa Marie Presley.”

Agent Elvis is streaming now only on Netflix.
