For the upcoming The Tragedy of Macbeth film based on William Shakespeare‘s original tragedy, Joel Coen teams up with A24 for an off-beat production set in black and white.
A24 is behind Uncut Gems, Midsommar, Moonlight, and more, while Joel Coen and Ethan Coen are popularly known as the Coen Brothers who have directed and produced iconic films such as The Big Lebowski, No Country for Old Men and Hail, Caesar!
The short one-minute-long trailer above reveals Denzel Washington as Macbeth and Frances McDormand as Lady Macbeth. The beautifully shot scenes display battlefields and castles in a foggy and sinister world. The teaser also gives us a glimpse at the three witches who are an integral part the Macbeth’s power-hungry reach for the Scottish throne. “By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked, this way comes,” croaks one of the cloaked sisters.
Watch the official trailer above, and expect The Tragedy of Macbeth to arrive in theaters December 25 and on Apple TV Plus January 14, 2022.
Elsewhere in entertainment, Marvel’s Shang-Chi Comes to Disney+ on November 12.
