New poster for The Current War starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Michael Shannon

June 18, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

A new poster has been revealed for the long-awaited historical drama The Current War featuring Benedict Cumberbatch, Michael Shannon, Tom Holland, Tuppence Middleton, Nicholas Hoult, and Katherine Waterston; take a look here…

THE CURRENT WAR is the epic story of the cutthroat competition between the greatest inventors of the industrial age over whose electrical system would power the new century. Backed by J.P. Morgan, Edison dazzles the world by lighting Manhattan. But Westinghouse, aided by Nikola Tesla, has seen fatal flaws in Edison’s direct current design. Igniting a war of currents, Westinghouse and Tesla bet everything on risky and dangerous alternating current.

The Current War is set for release on July 26th in the UK and on October 4th in the US.
