Andrew Garfield gets his faith tested in the trailer for Martin Scorsese’s SILENCE

After a short-lived leak from MKT Distributors, Paramount Pictures has released the official first (only?) trailer for Martin Scorsese’s Silence and it was worth the wait.

Featuring our first true looks at Andrew Garfield, Adam Driver and Liam Neeson, this labor of love is based on Shūsaku Endō‘s 1966 novel about a Portuguese Jesuit priest who is persecuted along with other Christians in 17th-century Japan. After an astonishing 28 years to get it made, $46.5 million dollars and a crew of over 750 people, the film wrapped principal photography in May 2015, making this 20-month post-production period the longest of Scorsese’s (anyone’s?) career. I urge you to read the extensive profile on the film in NY Times.

Paramount Pictures will open Silence December 23rd in limited release before going wide in January.

Here is the trailer plus a huge batch of screencapped images.

Erik Anderson

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), Hollywood Critics Association (HCA) 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.
