While the first trailer for The Walk focused solely on Joseph Gordon-Levitt bringing to life tightrope maverick and daredevil Philippe Petit as he considers the challenge of walking between the twin towers of New York’s Wold Trade Center in 1974, this new promo explores a little more about his plan and the people who helped him. Take a gander…
Robert Zemeckis is taking the basic story chronicled in James Marsh’s documentary Man On Wire and exploring it, layering on his usual affinity for effects and virtual sets to help tell the tale of how Petit planned and attempted to execute his stunt.
The likes of Charlotte Le Bon, James Badge Dale and Ben Schwartz are along to assist, with Ben Kingsley playing Papa Rudy, Petit’s mentor on the art and science of what he wants to pull off. And to make sure those of a nervous disposition when it comes to heights will be turned even more into gibbering wrecks, Zemeckis is putting this one out in 3D IMAX, which means all those gaping drops will look that much more realistic. {The Walk}
With the film now scoring a prime position as the opening slot of this year’s New York Film Festival, The Walk will arrive on UK screens on October 2.
