New trailer and poster for ‘Lucy in the Sky’ has Natalie Portman reaching for the stars
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.
