Robert Pattinson Rides Through New York In New Trailer For David Cronenberg's Cosmopolis

I’ve been waiting for this day for nearly a month now. Like many of you, my mind was blown back in March when the first trailer for David Cronenberg’s Cosmopolis arrived online. Since then I’ve been desperately craving to see more from the movie, and sadly the new images that came out one week later just weren’t enough. But tonight is the night: we finally have the first feature length trailer.

Coming to us courtesy of Allocine (via ROS), the new preview is just as awesome as the teaser trailer and has the added benefit of being nearly four times as long. It should be noted that the text in the trailer is in French, but fortunately, the dialogue has not been dubbed. Check it out!

Cosmopolis, based on the novel by Don DeLillo, centers on a young billionaire named Eric Packer (Robert Pattinson) who, while riding in a limo across Manhattan to get a haircut, quickly loses his entire fortune and finds himself hunted by people who want him dead. The film has an incredible supporting cast that includes Jay Baruchel, Kevin Durand, Paul Giamatti, Samantha Morton, Juliette Binoche, Sarah Gadon and Mathieu Amalric. As revealed in this trailer, the movie will be making its debut at this year’s Cannes Film Festival and will hopefully be in US cinemas by the end of the year.
