Disney gives us the trailer to THE TEMPEST, starring Helen Mirren, Russell Brand, Alfred Molina and Alan Cumming this big screen adaptation of the shakespearean story makes me intrigued enough to want to check it out plus it also has a massive cast to come with it.
In her big-screen adaptation of Shakespeare’s mystical thriller “The Tempest,” Academy Award®–nominated Julie Taymor (“Across the Universe,” “Frida,” “Titus”) brings an original dynamic to the story by changing the gender of the sorcerer Prospero into the sorceress Prospera, portrayed by Oscar® winner Helen Mirren (“The Queen”). Prospera’s journey spirals through vengeance to forgiveness as she reigns over a magical island, cares for her young daughter, Miranda, and unleashes her powers against shipwrecked enemies in this exciting, masterly mix of romance, tragicomedy and the supernatural.
THE TEMPEST hits Australian Cinema’s on the 21st April 2011 and American Screen’s on the 10th December 2010.
