First MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS Trailer, Starring Saoirse Ronan And Margot Robbie, Packs A Powerful Punch

Check out the first trailer for MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS, starring Saoirse Ronan and Margot Robbie. The film is directed by Josie Rourke (artistic director of The Donmar Warehouse).

MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS explores the turbulent life of the charismatic Mary Stuart (Ronan). Queen of France at 16 and widowed at 18, Mary defies pressure to remarry. Instead, she returns to her native Scotland to reclaim her rightful throne. But Scotland and England fall under the rule of the compelling Elizabeth I (Robbie). Each young Queen beholds her “sister” in fear and fascination. Rivals in power and in love, and female regents in a masculine world, the two must decide how to play the game of marriage versus independence.

Determined to rule as much more than a figurehead, Mary asserts her claim to the English throne, threatening Elizabeth’s sovereignty. Betrayal, rebellion, and conspiracies within each court imperil both thrones – and change the course of history.

Wow, this looks beautiful. The attention to detail in the costuming (Alexandra Byrne) and Hair & Makeup is impeccable and should see Oscar nominations. It’ll likely garner ones for cinematography (John Mathieson), among below the line Academy Awards nods, such as score (Max Richter) and art direction.

It being a biopic, which I’m sure historians will find some errors in the facts, and based on the lives of the two monarchs, the film could also see some love from the guilds as well as nominations in the bigger categories such as screenplay, director, picture and particularly acting. Expect to see Ronan and Robbie on the red carpet, and frequently, for the upcoming awards shows. Smart move by Focus Features and Working Title to roll out the film in limited release for an awards season run on December 7, 2018. The DVD screeners will be in the hands of voters for the holiday season.

Focus Features  and Working Title do these type of historical films so well. Look at DARKEST HOUR with Gary Oldman in 2017. He went on to win Best Actor for portraying Winston Churchill. The studios will undoubtedly launch a HUGE Oscar campaign again. But both actresses could go lead – they’ll have to decide who will be supporting, which I suspect will be Robbie.

MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS also stars Jack Lowden, Joe Alwyn, Gemma Chan, Martin Compston, Ismael Cordova, Brendan Coyle, Ian Hart, Adrian Lester, James McArdle, with David Tennant, and Guy Pearce. The screenplay is from Beau Willimon (“The Ides of March,” “House of Cards”), based on Queen of Scots: The True Life of Mary Stuart by John Guy.

Henson), who is the head algorithm and the heart and soul of trend-making site “BuzzzTube.”

Watch The New Trailer For Paul Dano’s WILDLIFE Starring Carey Mulligan And Jake Gyllenhaal

IFC Films has released the teaser trailer for Paul Dano’s WILDLIFE starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Carey Mulligan, Bill Camp, Ex Oxenbould & Zoe Margaret Colletti.

The film had it’s world premiere at the SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL 2018 and recently at the
CANNES FILM FESTIVAL 2018 – OPENING NIGHT CRITICS’ WEEK.

In their Sundance review, Indiewire praised Dano’s first film and wrote it is, “a tender, gorgeous, and exquisitely understated drama about a family that loses its faith in itself.”

14-year-old Joe is the only child of Jeanette and Jerry—a housewife and a golf pro—in a small town in 1960s Montana. Nearby, an uncontrolled forest fire rages close to the Canadian border, and when Jerry loses his job—and his sense of purpose—he decides to join the cause of fighting the fire, leaving his wife and son to fend for themselves. Suddenly forced into the role of an adult, Joe witnesses his mother’s struggle as she tries to keep her head above water.

Actor Paul Dano makes an impressive debut as a filmmaker and—along with co-writer Zoe Kazan—elegantly adapts Richard Ford’s novel of the same name. Carey Mulligan delivers one of her finest performances as a complex woman whose self-determination and self-involvement disrupts the values and expectations of the 1960s nuclear family. With precise details and textures of its specific time and place, WILDLIFE commits to the viewpoint of a teenage boy observing the gradual dissolution of his parents’ marriage.

Dano said of his film, “WILDLIFE is about a kid seeing his parents change and their marriage break – and through his parents’ failures, having to grow up. It is a coming of age story for all three: mother, father, and son. While it is about struggle and heartbreak and disillusionment, it is a film guided by love. Now that it is time for me to share this film, I can see that – like our protagonist Joe – I made a family portrait as a means of acceptance, and of letting go.”

WILDLIFE opens in theaters October 19th.
