Hugh Jackman And Laura Dern Have A Troubled Teen In The First Teaser For The Son
Writer/Director Florian Zeller had a huge success with his latest film Father, which he adapted from his stage work. He returned with the release of the play The Son, starring Hugh Jackman and Laura Dern, and its first teaser appeared online.
Like Father, Zeller worked on the screenplay with Christopher Hampton for a story that focuses on Peter (Jackman) whose hectic life with his baby and new partner Emma (Vanessa Kirby) is turned upside down when his ex-wife Kate (Dern) appears with their son Nicholas (Zan McGrath), who is now a teenager.
The young man has been absent from school for several months, he is anxious, aloof and angry. Peter tries to take care of Nicholas the way he would like his own father to take care of him. Juggling a job, his and Beth's new son, and the offer of his dream position in Washington, he loses sight of how to keep his son Nicholas in the present.
Zeller also has Anthony Hopkins, who won an Oscar for playing the father aboard that ship as Peter's father. The film will land in the US on November 11, but has yet to set a date in the UK. Let's hope we don't have to wait that long...
