THN and STUDIOCANAL are delighted to not only announce that Richard Ayoade’s THE DOUBLE will be available on EST from 28th July, and on DVD, Blu-Ray & VOD from 4th August 2014 but also to share this exclusive ‘making of’ clip to share with you.
Director Richard Ayoade’s (SUBMARINE) latest feature is an idiosyncratic adaptation of Dostoyevsky’s celebrated novella. Simon (Jesse Eisenberg) is a timid man, scratching out an isolated existence in an indifferent world. He is overlooked at work, scorned by his mother, and ignored by the woman of his dreams, Hannah (Mia Wasikowska). The arrival of a new co-worker, James, serves to upset the balance. James is both Simon’s exact physical double and his opposite – confident, charismatic and good with women. To Simon’s horror, James slowly starts taking over his life.
Richard Ayoade’s new book Ayoade on Ayoade: A Cinematic Odyssey is also out on 2nd October 2014, released through Faber and keep an eye out for that here:
