Second Anonymous Movie Trailer

The second full-length trailer for Roland Emmerich‘s “Anonymous,” a conspiracy thriller about the works of William Shakespeare, has been released.

Anonymous stars Rhys Ifans and Vanessa Redgrave in the two lead roles opposite an ensemble cast including  David Thewlis, Joely Richardson, Derek Jacobi, Xavier Samuel, Sebastian Armesto, Rafe Spall, Edward Hogg and Jamie Campbell Bower.

Here’s the official synopsis for Anonymous:

Set in the political snake-pit of Elizabethan England, Anonymous speculates on an issue that has for centuries intrigued academics and brilliant minds ranging from Mark Twain and Charles Dickens to Henry James and Sigmund Freud, namely: who was the author of the plays credited to William Shakespeare? Experts have debated, books have been written, and scholars have devoted their lives to protecting or debunking theories surrounding the authorship of the most renowned works in English literature. Anonymous poses one possible answer, focusing on a time when cloak-and-dagger political intrigue, illicit romances in the Royal Court, and the schemes of greedy nobles hungry for the power of the throne were exposed in the most unlikely of places: the London stage.

Anonymous is scheduled to hit theaters on October 28th.
