We saw a couple of new clips last week [see here], and now Fox has released a new featurette for Birdman, which sees Michael Keaton (Batman) as a once famous actor now looking to resurrect his career by launching a stage play.
The film is directed by Alejandro Gonzalez Innaritu (Biutiful) and sees Keaton joined in the cast by Emma Stone (The Amazing Spider-Man 2), Edward Norton (The Incredible Hulk), Andrea Riseborough (Oblivion), Zach Galifianakis (The Hangover Part III), Naomi Watts (21 Grams) and Amy Ryan (Gone Baby Gone).
“Birdman is a black comedy that tells the story of an actor (Michael Keaton) – famous for portraying an iconic superhero – as he struggles to mount a Broadway play. In the days leading up to opening night, he battles his ego and attempts to recover his family, his career, and himself.”
