Witness Natalie Portman's Crazy Life as a Pop Star in Full Trailer For VOX LUX
The first full trailer has been released for Natalie Portman’s upcoming film Vox Lux, and it looks like an interestingly crazy flick.
The film tells the story of a character named Celeste (Portman), who rises from the ashes of a major national tragedy to pop superstardom. The story spans 18 years and traces important cultural moments through the character’s eyes. It starts in 1999 and concluding in 2017.
It looks like Portman gives yet another great performance here. Here’s a more details description of the story:
The film begins in 1999 with teenage sisters Celeste (Raffey Cassidy) and Eleanor (Stacy Martin), who have survived a seismic, violent tragedy. The sisters compose and perform a song at about their experience, making something lovely and cathartic out of catastrophe — while also launching a career.
The sisters draw the attention of a passionate manager (Jude Law) and are rapidly catapulted into fame and fortune, with Celeste as the star and Eleanor the creative anchor. By the film's second half, set in 2017, the now 31-year-old Celeste (Portman) is mother to a teenage daughter of her own (Cassidy) and struggling to navigate a career fraught with scandals when another act of terrifying violence demands her attention.
Vox Lux was directed by Brady Corbet (Childhood of a Leader) and the music was also composed by Sia. Check out the trailer and let us know what you think.
