Let’s briefly sum Cloud Atlas up, then. A massively ambitious adaptation of David Mitchell’s book of the same name, it’s a big budget, R-rated movie, with a large cast, and a lot to get across in a trailer. It’s been directed by Andy and Lana Wachowski, as well as Tom Tykwer, and the cast features the likes of Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Hugh Grant, Susan Sarandon, Jim Broadbent and Hugo Weaving. And from what we’ve seen so far, it might just be something a bit special.
Here’s a second trailer for the film, which has a small amount of new material. The movie itself is due for release at the end of October in the US, although sadly we have to wait until March in the UK to see it. Sigh. Hopefully someone will have a word about that.
