A new trailer for “The Road” directed by John Hillcoat from a script by Joe Penhall has hit the web.
Viggo Mortensen and Kodi Smit-McPhee in “The Road”
Academy Award nominee Viggo Mortensen, Academy Award winners Robert Duvall and Charlize Theron, Guy Pearce and 12-year-old Kodi Smit McPhee star in the big-screen adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's best-selling, Pulitzer Prize-winning novel “The Road.”
This is a story of a man (Mortensen) and his son (Smit-McPhee) walk alone through burned America. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. It is cold enough to crack stones, and, when the snow falls it is gray. The sky is dark. Their destination is the coast, although they don't know what, if anything, awaits them there. They have nothing: just a pistol to defend themselves against the lawless bands that stalk the road, the clothes they are wearing, a cart of scavenged food and each other.
After delaying the film for more than a year, the movie is scheduled to hit theaters on November 25th. 2009.
