New UK Trailer For 'High-Rise' Starring Tom Hiddleston
If the striking teaser poster for "High-Rise" wasn't enough to satisfy your Ben Wheatley appetite this week, fortunately there's a hypnotic new trailer that star Tom Hiddleston has debuted on his Twitter page. It played out like a promotional piece that advertised all the amenities present in the ultra-modern building before hinting at the conflicts that simmered beneath the otherwise pristine surface.
It's been a long time coming, but rest assured that the adaptation of J.G Ballard's Dystopian thriller, High-Rise, is coming to these shores... at some point. The ideal utopian society soon degrades into a primal state where the law of the jungle prevails, but at least it does so in style. Jeremy Irons, Sienna Miller, Luke Evans and the always-wonderful Elisabeth Moss line up against this particular wall alongside Hiddles.
When a class war erupts inside a luxurious apartment block, modern elevators become violent battlegrounds and cocktail parties degenerate into marauding attacks on "enemy" floors.
