DEATH OF A SUPERHERO - Official U.S. Trailer

Here's the first U.S. trailer to a coming of age cancer drama called Death of a Superhero. The film stars Thomas Brodie-Sangster (Love, Actually) as Donald, an aspiring comic book artist who is diagnosed with leukemia. The movie also Andy Serkis in a non-CGI role as Donald's therapist. Then, of course, there's the love interest in the movie, played by Aisling Loftus, who gives Donald a reason to live. The movie looks like a solid feel-good movie. Being a huge fan of art, I think it's cool that the movie incorporates the art into the story of the film with animation.

Here's the Synopsis:

Donald is a teenager with extraordinary artistic talents. His future as a graphic novel artist should be bright. As his life is consumed by fantastic daydreams, Donald soon discovers that a very real enemy is trying to kill him. With an unorthodox psychologist teaching Donald to find the light in life in an otherwise dark world, DEATH OF A SUPERHERO tells the story of discovering life, love, and death in this exceptionally honest portrayal of a teenage boy facing his own mortality.
