Intriguing Trailer For THE 9TH LIFE OF LOUIS DRAX
Summit has released the first trailer for The 9th Life of Louis Drax, the new film adaptation of the best-selling novel by Liz Jensen. I've never heard of the book and had no idea this movie existed until now, but the trailer does a great job of laying out its central mystery and hinting at some bizarre, almost supernatural elements that made me extremely curious.
Aaron Paul, Sarah Gadon, Jamie Dornan, Oliver Platt, and Aiden Longworth star, and The 9th Life of Louis Drax hits theaters on September 2, 2016.
After surviving eight near-death accidents throughout his unlucky life, Louis Drax [Aiden Longworth] plunges off a steep cliff on his ninth birthday. While police investigate the cause of Louis' near-fatal fall and the whereabouts of his violent father Peter [Aaron Paul], acclaimed neurologist Dr. Allan Pascal [Jamie Dornan] uses unorthodox techniques to try to tap into the boy's unconscious mind and reveal the truth about the events that led to his condition. But as he's drawn deeper and deeper into the mystery of Louis' seeming ability to cheat death, the doctor finds himself falling for Louis' mother, Natalie [Sarah Gadon]. As new clues emerge in the case, a shocking revelation changes the fates of Louis Drax and everyone around him.
