New International Trailer Plugs You In To ‘Transcendence’

Fans of the brilliant Christopher Nolan are eagerly anticipating the directorial debut his Oscar-winning cinematographer and protoge, Wally Pfister. And what a cast Pfister has assembled for tense sci-fi thriller TRANSCENDENCE, with Johnny Depp leading as a scientist whose death offers an astonishing breakthrough in the controversial field of artificial intelligence.

Following the first poster, we’ve a brand new international trailer for the film set to open on 18th April 2014. Paul Bettany, Rebecca Hall, Clifton Collins Jr., Kate Mara, Josh Stewart, Cole Hauser, Cillian Murphy and Morgan Freeman co-star!

Dr. Will Caster (Johnny Depp) is the foremost researcher in the field of Artificial Intelligence, working to create a sentient machine that combines the collective intelligence of everything ever known with the full range of human emotions. His highly controversial experiments have made him famous, but they have also made him the prime target of anti-technology extremists who will do whatever it takes to stop him. However, in their attempt to destroy Will, they inadvertently become the catalyst for him to succeed—to be a participant in his own transcendence. For his wife Evelyn (Rebecca Hall) and best friend Max Waters (Paul Bettany), both fellow researchers, the question is not if they can…but if they should. Their worst fears are realized as Will’s thirst for knowledge evolves into a seemingly omnipresent quest for power, to what end is unknown. The only thing that is becoming terrifyingly clear is there may be no way to stop him.

Craig was our great north east correspondent, proving that it’s so ‘grim up north’ that losing yourself in a world of film is a foregone prerequisite. He has been studying the best (and often worst) of both classic and modern cinema at the University of Life for as long as he can remember. Craig’s favorite films include THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, JFK, GOODFELLAS, SCARFACE, and most of John Carpenter’s early work, particularly THE THING and HALLOWEEN.
