Just last week we featured a look inside of this year's crop of Oscar-contending films (Part One and Part Two). Since then, there's been an onslaught of trailers for many of this Fall and Winter's most anticipated releases. One possible Academy Award hopeful is Steve McQueen's 12 Years a Slave. Following the real life story of Solomon Northup, a free black man living in New York during the pre-Civil War era who was abducted and sold into slavery down south. McQueen's newest effort centers on the 12 year struggle that Northup endured while fighting to stay alive and regain his freedom. Starring an A-list cast including Brad Pitt, Paul Giamati, Michael Fassbender, Benedict Cumberbatch and Chiwetel Ejiofor as Solomon Northup, check out the trailer for 12 Years a Slave below.
While Alfonso Cuaron's Gravity debuted a teaser trailer months ago, the film has finally begun to release some new footage for audiences to see. With his latest offering we experience, first-hand, the intensity and torment of a space mission that goes terribly wrong. Although many are already branding Cuaron's Gravity as this year's Life of Pi, I have much higher hopes than that. Starring Sandra Bullock and George Clooney as astronauts hopelessly lost in outer space, check out the newest trailer from Alfonso Cuaron's Oscar-hopeful, Gravity.
