The official trailer for ‘Napoleon’ has been released now. Joaquín Phoenix plays the role of the French emperor in the period drama. It will be releasing in theaters on the 22nd of November.
‘Napoleon’ is directed by Ridley Scott, the genius filmmaker behind films like ‘Blade Runner’, ‘The Martian’, ‘Prometheus’, ‘Robin Hood’, ‘Gladiator’ and more.
The trailer is shot very well and the cinematography is wonderful. There are strong dialogues and very convincing performances. The production design of a period movie of this scale is very tricky, but when it is coming from someone like Ridley Scott, we know that it will be authentic and well researched. The trailer itself can make you immerse yourself in the world of the French upheaval. The movie is definitely going to be strong. ‘Napoleon’ is partnered with AppleTV+, but it is a good decision that it is being released in theaters.
The film will record the rise of the emperor from his days of being a war hero. The military commander’s genius and patriotism will be shown in the movie with utmost sincerity and dedication. His relationship with his wife Josephine and his many political problems will be the subject of the film. It will also show the battle of Waterloo, the final battle of Napoleon.
The music of the movie is given by Martin Phipps and the cinematography is handled by Dariusz Wolski. It will be two hours and thirty eight minutes long and will star actors like Joaquin Phoenix, Vanessa Kirby, Tahar Rahim, Ben Miles, Ludivine Sagnier, Madame Tallien, Matthew Needham, and more.
