The-Zero-Theorem-Poster-sliceHaving made its debut on the festival circuit out in Venice last year, Terry Gilliam’s latest fantasy/sci-fi The Zero Theorem will soon be heading into cinemas on our shores.

Sony launched the first trailer last month, giving us a great tease of what we can expect from the visionary filmmaker. And now the studio have released a new behind-the-scenes featurette, taking a look at their production of the colossal super mainframe, Mancom.

A computer hacker’s goal to discover the reason for human existence continually finds his work interrupted thanks to the Management; this time, they send a teenager and lusty love interest to distract him.

Christoph Waltz leads a stellar cast, joined by Mélanie Thierry, David Thewlis, Lucas Hedges, Matt Damon, Tilda Swinton, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Peter Stormare, and Ben Whishaw.

Gilliam directs from a script by Pat Rushin, making his feature debut as a screenwriter with the film.

The Zero Theorem will continue its tour of the festival circuit at the Glasgow Film Festival later this month, before its UK release on 14th March. Still no word yet on a US release date.
