Xavier Dolan’s The Death and Life of John F. Donovan gets a trailer

January 25, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

After a critical drubbing following its premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival back in September, we now have the first trailer for Xavier Dolan’s long-gestating English language feature debut The Death and Life of John F. Donovan. The drama sees Game of Throne star Kit Harington leading a cast that includes Kathy Bates, Susan Sarandon, Jacob Tremblay, Natalie Portman, Jared Keeso, Susie Almgren, Thandie Newton, Sarah Gadon, Michael Gambon, Amara Karan and Ben Schnetzer; watch it here…

A decade after the death of an American TV star, a young actor reminisces the written correspondence he once shared with the former, as well as the impact those letters had on both their lives.

As yet, there’s no word on a release date for The Death and Life of John F. Donovan, but we’ll keep you posted.
