The second trailer for Francis Ford Coppola‘s ‘Megalopolis,’ starring Adam Driver, has been revealed. The trailer showcases cool visuals and promises that it will be one of Ford Coppola’s greatest works. You can see that every scene cut is mystical and contains a lot of mystery. Witness the trailer below.
The film follows the destruction of a metropolis which brings clashing visions of the future. An architectural idealist (Driver) and the Mayor (Giancarlo Esposito) debate on whether to embrace the future & build a utopia or take a business-as-usual rebuild strategy, replete with corruption and power brokering. In between their struggle is the mayor’s socialite daughter Julia (Nathalie Emmanuel), a restless young woman who grew up around power and is looking for meaning in her life.
The film is written and directed by Ford Coppola, who also serves as a producer alongside Michael Bederman. The film is being praised as Ford Coppola’s ‘best film yet.’ Developed over 40 years, Coppola has invested $120M of his own money into the project.
The film stars Driver as Caesar, Forest Whitaker, Emmanuel, Jon Voight, Laurence Fishburne, Aubrey Plaza, Jason Schwartzman, Shia LaBeouf, Talia Shire, Grace VanderWaal, Kathryn Hunter, James Remar, Chloe Fineman, Madeleine Gardella, and Isabelle Kusman.
The film’s French distribution rights have been acquired by Le Pacte, while the US rights have not yet been revealed. Recently, the film was screened for 300 guests at the Universal CityWalk IMAX Theater.
According to World of Reel, ‘Megalopolis’ was shown to be a little over 2 hours long and confirmed to be the final cut.
‘Megalopolis’ is scheduled to premiere at the 77th Cannes Film Festival on May 17, 2024. The theater release date is TBA.
