A LONG WAY DOWN First Trailer

Lionsgate has released the first trailer for A Long Way Down, the latest adaptation of Nick Hornby’s novel of the same name, directed by Pascal Chaumeil (Heartbreaker).

Adapted by Jack Thorne, this dramedy tells the story of four strangers on New Year’s Eve, who meet by chance on the roof of a skyscraper in London, when they each decide to commit suicide by jumping off a building. Instead of jumping, the quartet decided to make a pact to stick around, until Valentine’s Day.

The movie stars Pierce Brosnan, Toni Collette, Aaron Paul, Imogen Poots, Rosamund Pike, Sam Neill and Tuppence Middleton and will premiere at the Berlin Film Festival next month before opening in the UK on March 21st, 2014.

No US release date has been set at this time.

Today brings an international trailer and poster. Hit the jump to check ’em out.

And here’s the synopsis:

New Year’s Eve on the top of a London skyscraper. MARTIN (Brosnan) is literally on the edge. A once-beloved TV personality, he’s now desperate to jump. But he’s not alone. Single mother MAUREEN, (Collette), sassy teen JESS (Poots), and failed musician turned pizza-delivery boy JJ (Paul), have all turned up on the same roof with the same plan.

Instead of jumping, these four strangers make a pact to stay alive and stay together until Valentine’s Day at least. Both funny and poignant, A LONG WAY DOWN follows this group of unlikely friends as they try to pull back from the brink.
