Open Road Films has released the first trailer for Oliver Stone<\/strong>\u2019s anticipated, pulse-pounding thriller Snowden<\/strong>, starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt<\/strong> and Shailene Woodley<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Produced by Moritz Borman, Eric Kopeloff<\/strong> and Philip Schulz-Deyle<\/strong>, the film co-stars Melissa Leo, Zachary Quinto, Tom Wilkinson, Keith Stanfield, Rhys Ifans<\/strong> and Nicolas Cage.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Written and directed by Stone, the film is based on Luke Harding<\/strong>‘s recent book, “The Snowden Files: The Inside Story of the World’s Most Wanted Man.”<\/strong> The book, from the newspaper’s own correspondent, was published earlier this year with the following official description.<\/p>\n

\"Snowden<\/a><\/p>\n

It began with a tantalizing, anonymous e-mail: “I am a senior member of the intelligence community.”<\/p>\n

What followed was the most spectacular intelligence breach ever, brought about by one extraordinary man. Edward Snowden was a 29-year-old computer genius working for the National Security Agency when he shocked the world by exposing the near-universal mass surveillance programs of the United States government. His whistleblowing has shaken the leaders of nations worldwide, and generated a passionate public debate on the dangers of global monitoring and the threat to individual privacy.<\/p>\n

\"Snowden<\/a><\/p>\n

In a tour de force of investigative journalism that reads like a spy novel, award-winning Guardian reporter Luke Harding tells Snowden\u2019s astonishing story\u2014from the day he left his glamorous girlfriend in Honolulu carrying a hard drive full of secrets, to the weeks of his secret-spilling in Hong Kong, to his battle for asylum and his exile in Moscow. For the first time, Harding brings together the many sources and strands of the story\u2014touching on everything from concerns about domestic spying to the complicity of the tech sector\u2014while also placing us in the room with Edward Snowden himself. The result is a gripping insider narrative\u2014and a necessary and timely account of what is at stake for all of us in the new digital age.<\/p>\n

Snowden hits theaters\u00a0on September 16.<\/p>\n
