If you like Jake Gyllenhaal, nudity, beards, quick editing and big ass spiders, then you are in luck old friend. Here is the new NSFW teaser for ENEMY starring Gyllenhaal and Mélanie Laurent (INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS). It’s the latest film from Denis Villeneuve who worked with bearded beefcake Jake in surprise hit PRISONERS. Here they collaborate on a piece that looks even more brooding and intense in which Gyllenhaal plays a man who tracks down his doppelgänger after spotting him in a film. Their lives become interwoven as madness begins to envelope them both.
It is based on José Saramago’s novel The Double and is not to be confused with Richard Ayoade’s upcoming project THE DOUBLE (view the trailer here) starring Jesse Eisenberg and Mia Wasikowska. That one is based on a story by Dostoevsky in which a man meets his doppelgänger and their lives becoming interwoven as madness begins to envelope them both. Things are getting very meta here as the films could themselves be doubles of each other. Still, best not to over think it, eh?
Click here full the full trailer for ENEMY and here for a featurette.
ENEMY is directed by Denis Villeneuve and will be released in he UK on 7th February and in the US on 14th March. It stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Melanie Laurent, Isabella Rossellini, and Sarah Gadon.
