Hail Caesar trailer: The Coens are back with a brand new all-star comedy.
Hail Caesar trailer
Universal Pictures have released the first Hail Caesar trailer. The film is a new all-star comedy from Joel and Ethan Coen, directors of films like Barton Fink, The Hudsucker Proxy and Fargo. The film is set during the latter years of Hollywood’s Golden Age. Starring Josh Brolin, George Clooney, Ralph Fiennes, Scarlett Johansson, Tilda Swinton, Alden Ehrenreich, Channing Tatum and Frances McDormand, and will be released in 2016.
Here’s the detailed plot synopsis, followed by the Hail Caesar trailer.
Four-time Oscar®-winning filmmakers Joel and Ethan Coen (No Country for Old Men, True Grit, Fargo) write and direct HAIL, CAESAR!, an all-star comedy set during the latter years of Hollywood’s Golden Age. Starring Josh Brolin, George Clooney, Ralph Fiennes, Tilda Swinton, Channing Tatum, Scarlett Johansson, Jonah Hill and Frances McDormand, Hail, Caesar! follows a single day in the life of a studio fixer who is presented with plenty of problems to fix.
The comedy is produced by the Coen brothers under their Mike Zoss Productions banner alongside Working Title Films’ Eric Fellner and Tim Bevan.
We’ve heard some great things about the movie, and it certainly has managed to gather a great cast.
The film is based on a Hollywood backlot during the 1950s, and in typical Mel Brooks sees the viewer through all these pictures that are in production there, including Hail Caesar, which apparently has George Clooney starring as Hollywood star Baird Whitlock. The film also stars a blond Channing Tatum, and it looks like he’s appearing in a faux-musical movie judging by the trailer.
The film shot late last year when we got a first look at the cast on set, including George Clooney in his Roman garb, complete with Caesar haircut.
Hail Caesar will be released on February 26, 2016 in the UK, and February 6, 2016 in the US.
