Posters for THE DOUBLE with Jesse Eisenberg and Mia Wasikowska

Here are a couple of character posters for an interesting looking dark comedy called The Double, which stars Jesse Eisenberg and Mia Wasikowska

The story follows a man, played by Eisenberg, who is driven into madness by the sudden appearance of his doppelganger who starts to take over his life. The film is based on the novel by Fyodor Dostoevsky, and here's the synopsis,

Simon is a timid man, scratching out an isolated existence in an indifferent world. He is overlooked at work, scorned by his mother, and ignored by the woman of his dreams. The arrival of a new co-worker, James, serves to upset the balance. James is both Simon's exact physical double and his opposite — confident, charismatic and good with women. To Simon's horror, James slowly starts taking over his life. 

The movie was directed by Richard Ayoade (Submarine), and also stars Mia Wasikowska, Wallace Shawn, Noah Taylor, and Yasmin Paige. I've included the trailer for the film as well. 

 

Watch the trailer for The Double, the new film directed by Richard Ayoade, and loosely based on Dostoyevsky's novella of the same name.
