First U.S. trailer for ‘Macbeth’ with Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard is Visceral and Savage

The first U.S. trailer for the Radius-TWC release Macbeth, starring Academy Award nominee Michael Fassbender (12 Years a Slave) and Academy Award winner Marion Cotillard (La vie en rose) is here and its packed with visual inventiveness and subverts many Shakespearian attempts at this material, which has been produced on television and in film over a dozen times.
Part 300, part Julie Taymor’s Titus and part Starz’s Spartacus, the trailer presents a viscerally frenzied and savage Macbeth that will likely be as controversial as much as it is loved.
Macbeth is directed by Justin Kurzel (The Snowtown Murders) and opens in select theaters December 4, 2015 and then will go exclusively to Amazon Prime after.
