Elvis

Elvis is Dominic Greene’s cousin and second-in-command in the film Quantum of Solace, portrayed by Anatole Taubman.

Elvis has a bowl cut (revealed in QoS as a wig) and speaks Swiss German and Swiss French. His name was chosen by Paul Haggis, which Taubman liked, though he said he avoided making Elvis Presley jokes to not lose the role. Taubman imagined Elvis once lived on the streets before being inducted into Quantum by Dominic, and he constantly discussed his backstory with Amalric.

Elvis is seen accompanying Greene through the film. During the Eco-Park fundraiser, Elvis attempts to intercept a departing Bond, but is tripped by MI6 agent Strawberry Fields and falls down a flight of stairs. He survives, though his injuries require him to wear a neck brace, and Fields is later killed as a retaliation. During the climax, Elvis tries to shoot Bond, but is instead killed when a hydrogen tank explodes.
