A new full-length trailer for the upcoming period thriller The Revenant has been released and it’s fucking intense. From the scene of Leonardo DiCaprio getting attacked by a bear to the life changing moment that sets him on a path of revenge.
The synopsis for The Revenant reads:
Inspired by true events, THE REVENANT is an immersive and visceral cinematic experience capturing one man’s epic adventure of survival and the extraordinary power of the human spirit. In an expedition of the uncharted American wilderness, legendary explorer Hugh Glass (Leonardo DiCaprio) is brutally attacked by a bear and left for dead by members of his own hunting team. In a quest to survive, Glass endures unimaginable grief as well as the betrayal of his confidant John Fitzgerald (Tom Hardy). Guided by sheer will and the love of his family, Glass must navigate a vicious winter in a relentless pursuit to live and find redemption.
To be 100% honest with all of you, this movie isn’t really a “horror” film, although the way the whole “coming back from the dead” thing was done has some spooky elements behind it. I’m willing to bet that this movie is going to be like Gravity, something so intense and thrilling that we’ll cover it here because it will feel right. Just watch the trailer and you’ll see what I’m talking about.
Directed by Alejandro G. Iñárritu and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy, and Domhnall Gleeson, The Revenant comes out December 25th, 2015.
