The Waltzing With Brando trailer has just been released showing off Billy Zane’s uncanny resemblance to the legendary, Oscar-winning actor, Marlon Brando.
The Waltzing With Brando trailer is below and, as you can see, Jon Heder, Richard Dreyfuss, and Tia Carrere are also among the cast. In the film, movie star Marlon Brando recruits a Los Angeles architect to build the world’s first ecologically perfect retreat on a small, uninhabited island in Tahiti.
Bill Fishman directs the film which has been picked up by VMI Worldwide for foreign sales. The movie is based on the book ‘Waltzing with Brando: Planning a Paradise in Tahiti‘ which was first published in 2014.
The events of the feature reportedly take place between 1969 and 1974.
Its synopsis reads: Waltzing with Brando is the story of Marlon Brando and architect Bernard Judge living and working together on an unpopulated island near Tahiti between 1970 and 1974. It is an account of the four years they were developing a plan for, and later building, a small hotel on the Polyneisian atoll of Tetiaroa. Waltzing with Brando is a compelling story of a young architect who found himself, quite unexpectedly, living with Brando on a tiny speck of land within a crashing coral reef. The story includes a wealth of wild, funny and at times dangerous exploits. The narrative covers the joys, as well as the trials and tribulations of building a paradise in the midst of limpid lagoons, swaying palms and brilliant, white sand beaches.
The Waltzing With Brando trailer shows the overall tone of the piece and it looks like a lot of fun.
As it is at the sales stage, there’s no release date as of yet but we’ll keep you posted.
