Teaser Trailer For Ari Aster's Pandemic Film EDDINGTON with Joaquin Pheonix, Pedro Pascal, and Emma Stone
A24 has released the first teaser trailer for director Ari Aster’s upcoming film titled Eddington, which is set during the COVID pandemic. The teaser introduces the characters as they are discussing COVID conspiracy theories on social media.The movie is described as a modern Western and the brief logline reads: “A standoff between a small-town sheriff (Joaquin Phoenix) and mayor (Pedro Pascal) sparks a powder keg as neighbor is pitted against neighbor in Eddington, New Mexico.”Joining Phoenix and Pascal in the cast are Austin Butler, Emma Stone, Luke Grimes, Deirdre O’Connell, Micheal Ward, Amélie Hoeferle, Clifton Collins Jr. and William Belleau.The movie seems like it could taking a page from The Twilight Zone. This is Aster’s fourth feature film, following Hereditary, Midsommar and Afraid, the last of which Phoenix also starred in. When talking about working with Phoenix, Aster said:“Having now worked with him, I understand why he is so reluctant to jump onto anything — because he really puts all of himself into whatever he’s doing. The way that he challenges the material — not in a gratuitous way or in a way that’s a pain in the ass. “The question usually amounts to ‘Is there anything we haven’t considered here?’ I realized that it’s something that I was really wanting from an actor, and now I can’t imagine making a film without him.”Eddington is set to open in competition at Cannes. It will be released in the US on July 18.
