Sony Pictures has sent us a brand new official trailer for acclaimed director Ang Lee's new film, Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk (2016), starring Vin Diesel, Kristen Stewart, Garrett Hedlund, Steve Martin, Chris Tucker, and Deirdre Lovejoy. Currently, the film is set to open in theaters across the nation on November 11.
Synopsis: Director Ang Lee brings his extraordinary vision to Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk, based on the widely-acclaimed, bestselling novel. The film is told from the point of view of 19-year-old private Billy Lynn (newcomer Joe Alwyn) who, along with his fellow soldiers in Bravo Squad, becomes a hero after a harrowing Iraq battle and is brought home temporarily for a victory tour. Through flashbacks, culminating at the spectacular halftime show of the Thanksgiving Day football game, the film reveals what really happened to the squad – contrasting the realities of the war with America's perceptions.
Lee used new technology, shooting at an ultra-high frame rate for the first time in film history, to create an immersive digital experience helping him dramatize war in a way never seen before.
