The new cinematic incarnation of MACBETH is certainly not the first to tackle William Shakespeare’s beloved classic tale, but it looks like it could be one of the best. Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard headline an impressive cast that includes Elizabeth Debicki, Sean Harris, David Thewlis, Jack Reynor, Paddy Considine, and David Hayman. It’s directed by Justin Kurzel, who previously did THE SNOWTOWN MURDERS and reteamed with Fassbender for the upcoming ASSASSIN’S CREED movie adaptation. Take a look at the impressive new trailer below and tell us your thoughts in the comments.
Macbeth, a duke of Scotland, receives a prophecy from a trio of witches that one day he will become King of Scotland. Consumed by ambition and spurred to action by his wife, Macbeth murders his king and takes the throne for himself.
