New trailer for Armando Iannucci’s The Death of Stalin

September 27, 2017 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of its release next month, a new trailer has arrived online for the upcoming comedy drama The Death of Stalin. Directed by Armando Iannucci, the film is an adaptation of the 2011 graphic novel of the same name and features an ensemble cast that includes Steve Buscemi, Michael Palin, Jeffrey Tambor, Jason Isaacs, Rupert Friend, Simon Russell Beale, Andrea Riseborough, Paddy Considine, and Olga Kurylenko; watch it here…

The internal political landscape of 1950’s Soviet Russia takes on darkly comic form in a new film by Emmy award-winning and Oscar-nominated writer/director Armando Iannucci.

In the days following Stalin’s collapse, his core team of ministers tussle for control; some want positive change in the Soviet Union, others have more sinister motives. Their one common trait? They’re all just desperately trying to remain alive.

The Death of Stalin is set for release on October 20th.
