After unveiling its teaser trailer last month, we now have the first poster for director Yorgos Lanthimos’ Frankenstein-inspired tale Poor Things which puts the spotlight on his The Favourite star Emma Stone in the role of Bella Baxter, a young woman who returns from the dead; take a look here…
From filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos and producer Emma Stone comes the incredible tale and fantastical evolution of Bella Baxter (Stone), a young woman brought back to life by the brilliant and unorthodox scientist Dr. Godwin Baxter (Willem Dafoe). Under Baxter’s protection, Bella is eager to learn. Hungry for the worldliness she is lacking, Bella runs off with Duncan Wedderburn (Mark Ruffalo), a slick and debauched lawyer, on a whirlwind adventure across the continents. Free from the prejudices of her times, Bella grows steadfast in her purpose to stand for equality and liberation.
Featuring in the cast of Poor Things are Emma Stone, Mark Ruffalo, Willem Dafoe, Ramy Youssef, Jerrod Carmichael, and Christopher Abbott.
Poor Things arrives in cinemas on September 8th.
