Character Posters For Tom Ford’s Nocturnal AnimalsPosted by Wilson Morales
September 8, 2016
Focus Features has released four new character posters from Nocturnal Animals, which stars Amy Adams, Jake Gyllenhaal, Michael Shannon, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Isla Fisher, Karl Glusman, Armie Hammer, Laura Linney, Andrea Riseborough and Michael Sheen.
Based on the novel “Tony and Susan” by Austin Wright, the film is written and directed by Tom Ford (A Single Man).
Susan (Amy Adams, also appearing at the Festival in Arrival) is a successful Los Angeles art-gallery owner who wants for very little, yet she finds her paradise troubled by the frequent absences of her second husband (Armie Hammer, also at the Festival in The Birth of a Nation and Free Fire), a handsome young doctor, due to his incessant travelling. Susan is rattled further when a manuscript arrives on her desk, written by her long-estranged first husband, Tony (Jake Gyllenhaal).
Alone, with her current husband away in New York, Susan opens the manuscript and is propelled into the fictional life of a teacher (also Gyllenhaal) whose drive to his summer house with his family is about to turn into a nightmare. As Susan gets deeper into the book, she is forced to examine her own past. Oscillating effortlessly between Susan’s reality and the story within a story, Ford slowly and meticulously turns the screws, delving into suspense while keeping a firm hand on the disturbing drama.
Nocturnal Animals opens in select cities November 18, in additional cities November 23 and in theaters nationwide December 9.
