We’ve got just over a week to wait for Danny Boyle’s Trance, and all that we’ve seen so far has our interest piqued for the psychological crime-thriller.
James McAvoy, Vincent Cassel, and Rosario Dawson take the lead here, making up an impressive leading trio. And after catching the first TV spot, MSN have debuted a new featurette, taking us behind the scenes of Boyle’s return behind the camera.
A fine art auctioneer mixed up with a gang joins forces with a hypnotherapist to recover a lost painting. As boundaries between desire, reality and hypnotic suggestion begin to blur the stakes rise faster than anyone could have anticipated.
Starring alongside McAvoy, Cassel, and Dawson will be Tuppence Middleton, Danny Sapani, Lee Nicholas Harris, and Wahab Sheikh.
Boyle is directing from a script co-written by Joe Ahearne (Apparitions) and John Hodge (Trainspotting), partly inspired by Ahearne’s 2001 TV movie of the same name.
It’s been a long time since we last saw Boyle’s work on the big screen, with the director taking time off after the brilliant 127 Hours to work on the Opening Ceremony for last year’s Olympics and on productions for the stage. With a three-year absence, we’re very much looking forward to his return.
Trance will be released next Wednesday, 27th March, here in the UK. Its US release date will then follow early next month on April 5th. For now, here’s the new featurette to whet your appetite.
