ON this site Elvis's first movie was "LOve me Tender". This is a quote from that site.
Parker eventually negotiated a multi-picture seven-year contract with Hal Wallis that shifted Presley's focus from music to films. Under the terms of his contract, Presley earned a fee for performing plus a percentage of the profits on the films, most of which were huge moneymakers. These were usually musicals based around Presley performances, and marked the beginning of his transition from rebellious rock and roller to all-round family entertainer. Presley was praised by all his directors, including the highly respected Michael Curtiz, as unfailingly polite and extremely hardworking.
Presley began his movie career with Love Me Tender which opened on November 15, 1956. The movies Jailhouse Rock (1957) and King Creole (1958) are regarded as among his best early films.

The answer depends on if you are looking for his first motion picture like what you would see in a movie theater, or first movie of any type.
If you are looking for motion picture like in a movie theater, then "Love Me Tender" released in 1956 was his first time on the big screen.
However, his first film was a documentary based on the life of disc jockey Bill Randle who was known as Alan Freed in the 1950s. This film was titled "The Pied Piper of Cleveland: A Day in the Life of a Famous Disc Jockey" and was created in 1955.

It was " Love me tender ". I remember seeing it on television many years ago. He wasn't terribly good in the role, very wooden acting but he sang a lovely song.
