A24 has released a new trailer for the upcoming dystopian action film Civil War, directed by Alex Garland. The movie stars Kirsten Dunst, Nick Offerman, and Wagner Moura. As the USA descends into chaos with several states seceding from the union.
The trailer opens with an address from the President (Offerman), urging citizens to take up arms against ‘the Florida alliance and the Western forces of Texas and California’.
“The Western forces of Texas and California are welcome back to these United States as soon as their illegal secessionist government is deposed,” Offerman’s character declares.
The plot revolves around a near-future United States where 19 states have seceded from the Union, while much of the rest of the country is ruled by a tyrannical three-term president who has ordered air strikes against the rebelling forces. Kirsten Dunst portrays a war journalist and photographer who leads a team attempting to reach the White House.
The film is described as an adrenaline-fueled thrill ride through a near-future fractured America balanced on the razor’s edge. Alongside Dunst, Moura & Offerman it also stars Cailee Spaeny, Stephen McKinley Henderson and Sonoya Mizuno.
Written and directed by Alex Garland, who received an Academy Award nomination for best original screenplay for 2014’s Ex Machina. His latest Civil War hits cinemas April 12 in the US & April 26 in the UK.
