All Hail the Trailer for Michael Fassbender's MACBETH

The Weinstein Company has released a U.S. trailer for Michael Fassbender's big-screen adaptation of William Shakespeare's Macbeth. Fassbender stars as the title character and Marion Cotillard plays his power-crazed wife. The trailer features a lot of epic-looking footage from the film, a lot of which features Macbeth in the midst of battle. There were many bloody misdeeds involved in Macbeth's pursuit of the crown, and if you know the story, then you know you're in for an intense film. It looks like a great adaptation!

Macbeth is the story of a fearless warrior and inspiring leader brought low by ambition and desire. A thrilling interpretation of the dramatic realities of the times and a reimagining of what wartime must have been like for one of Shakespeare’s most famous and compelling characters, a story of all-consuming passion and ambition set in war torn 11th Century Scotland.

The movie was directed by Justin Kurzel and will be released in theaters on October 2nd in the U.K. and December 4th in the U.S.
