This first preview — almost more in line with a sales piece than some official glimpse — offers a closer look at some of the plot machinations, what’s on display possibly working (early as this guess is) in some harmony with A History of Violence. All else looks and feels like a late Cronenberg picture — the return of cinematographer Peter Suschitzky ought to play some part in as much — and for yours truly, who considers the aforementioned 2012 picture among his greatest, a continuation (or “evolution,” as is probably more fitting) is one of many signs which point to one of 2014′s most essential pictures. Here’s one that can’t come soon enough.
@le_pacte: Maps To The Stars from David Cronenberg released on May 21! MTTS # # # DavidCronenberg JulianneMoore RobertPattinson # # # MiaWasikowska JohnCusack
Le Pacte has announced that “Maps to the Stars”, the next feature film by David Cronenberg starring Robert Pattinson, John Cusack and Julianne Moore will hit our screens in May 2014.
As we announced in January a first editing of Maps To The Stars was ready and that the film had passed by the Committee of Film Classification in the United States, Le Pacte – the french distributor – just gave a release date for the next film by David Cronenberg, in May 2014.
No specific date has been given, but like his Cosmopolis in 2012, there is a good chance that the release will be made simultaneously in theaters and for its presentation at Cannes.
Led by Robert Pattinson, Julianne Moore and John Cusack, Maps To The Stars central theme is Hollywood, and more exactly the obsession with celebrity.
David Cronenberg has been selected 4 times in Cannes in Official Competition: Crash in 1996 and Spider in 2002, A History of Violence in 2005 and Cosmopolis in 2012.
Note that The Rover by David Michôd with Robert Pattinson has no realease date yet too and could be in competition for the Palme d’Or.
Double dose of Pattinson for the 67th Cannes Film Festival?
The French distributor also confirmed via twitter to Pattinson_AW the May release
