This morning at THN, we’ve finally been introduced to the first full trailer for Walter Salles (THE MOTORCYCLE DIARIES) adaptation of Jack Kerouac’s generation-defining novel ON THE ROAD. Moving this seminal work to the big screen is a considerable task, but this first look encouragingly keeps the passion and demands of the heart in Kerouac’s work, where the detail is vital to getting this right.
ON THE ROAD focuses on writer Sal Paradise (Sam Riley) who, after the death of his father, meets Dean Moriarty (Garrett Hedlund), an infectiously charming ex-con. Sal is determined to avoid the worries of a ‘normal’ life and hits the road, joining Dean on what turns into a life-changing physical and emotional odyssey. And whilst out there, they start to experience…everything. Check out the trailer:
ON THE ROAD is directed by Walter Salles and co-stars Kristen Stewart, Amy Adams, Tom Sturridge, Alice Braga, Elizabeth Moss, Danny Morgan, Kirsten Dunst and Viggo Mortensen. It’s due for UK release on 21st September 2012.
