Fox Searchlight has dropped a brand new trailer and first poster for Noah Hawley’s Lucy in the Sky starring Academy Award winner Natalie Portman (Black Swan) and Emmy Award winner Jon Hamm (Mad Men).
In Lucy in the Sky, Natalie Portman plays Lucy Cola, a strong woman whose determination and drive as an astronaut take her to space, where she’s deeply moved by the transcendent experience of seeing her life from afar. Back home as Lucy’s world suddenly feels too small, her connection with reality slowly unravels.
The trailer gives audiences a look at the ever-changing aspect ratios Hawley and cinematographer Polly Morgan employ in the film. The screenplay is by Brian C Brown & Elliott DiGuiseppi and Noah Hawley from a story by Brian C Brown & Elliott DiGuiseppi. It is produced by Reese Witherspoon, Bruna Papandrea, p.g.a., Noah Hawley, p.g.a., John Cameron, p.g.a. and also stars Dan Stevens, Zazie Beetz, Pearl Amanda Dickson, Colman Domingo and Academy Award winner Ellen Burstyn.
Lucy in the Sky will world premiere at the 44th Toronto International Film Festival next month and hit theaters on October 4th.
Erik Anderson is the founder/owner and Editor-in-Chief of AwardsWatch and has always loved all things Oscar, having watched the Academy Awards since he was in single digits; making lists, rankings and predictions throughout the show. This led him down the path to obsessing about awards. Much later, he found himself in film school and the film forums of GoldDerby, and then migrated over to the former Oscarwatch (now AwardsDaily), before breaking off to create AwardsWatch in 2013.
He is a Rotten Tomatoes-approved critic, accredited by the Cannes Film Festival, Telluride Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival and more, is a member of the International Cinephile Society (ICS), The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics (GALECA), Critics Choice Association (CCA), San Francisco Bay Area Film Critics Circle (SFBAFCC) and the International Press Academy. Among his many achieved goals with AwardsWatch, he has given a platform to underrepresented writers and critics and supplied them with access to film festivals and the industry and calls the Bay Area his home where he lives with his husband and son.
