Ahead of its Stateside release this September, Open Road Films have released the new trailer and poster for Oliver Stone‘s Snowden.
Here’s the official blurb.
Academy Award®-winning director Oliver Stone, who brought Platoon, Born on the Fourth of July, Wall Street and JFK to the big screen, tackles the most important and fascinating true story of the 21st century. Snowden, the politically-charged, pulse-pounding thriller starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Shailene Woodley, reveals the incredible untold personal story of Edward Snowden, the polarizing figure who exposed shocking illegal surveillance activities by the NSA and became one of the most wanted men in the world. He is considered a hero by some, and a traitor by others. No matter which you believe, the epic story of why he did it, who he left behind, and how he pulled it off makes for one of the most compelling films of the year.
As it briefly mentions above, Snowden features an all-star cast, including Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Shailene Woodley, Melissa Leo, Zachary Quinto, Tom Wilkinson, Rhys Ifans, Nicolas Cage, Scott Eastwood, Joely Richardson, Timothy Olyphant, and Ben Schnelzer.
The film is still awaiting a release date for the U.K., but we’re expecting this to show up at one of the festivals later in the year. We’re guessing it’ll have a presence at the London Film Festival in October, but obviously this isn’t confirmed.
Here’s the new trailer and poster.
