A week or two ago, a few lucky journalists got treated to an eight-minute preview of David Fincher’s take on The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. Most who saw it were effusive about the footage, with many calling on Sony to release it on the internet for everyone to see. Sadly we don’t have that, but there is a new trailer which runs just under four minutes, and goes deeper into the plot for those who haven’t read the book or seen the Scandinavian movie version. The film is due on UK cinemas on December 26th, but click below to take a look at the stylish and rather nifty trailer.

Many fans of John Carpenter’s The Thing aren’t happy about this remake/prequel (they seem to forget Carpenter’s movie was a remake itself), but this Red Band trailer for the movie may allay some of their films. The film seems to be keeping to the creepy weirdness of the shape-shifting creature that was so memorable in the 1980s flick, but with modern effects. While Carpenter’s movie saw Kurt Russell and co. heading for an Antarctic research station only to discover a blood bath has been caused by some sort of creature (and then get attacked themselves), this The Thing charts the events that led up to that. A team of scientists dig a creature from the ice that seems to have been there for 100,000 years. However it turns out it was only lying dormant and soon a shape-shifting monster is on the loose. Click below to take a look. It’s currently scheduled for release in the UK on December 2nd.

Clint Eastwood’s a biopic of J. Edgar Hoover, starring Leo DiCaprio, has always sounded incredibly intriguing, and now we get our first look at the movie with this trailer. The sepia filter may be turned up to max, but it does look pretty good, with DiCaprio playing Hoover both as a young man and old. Hoover helped found the FBI at a time when the US was having a problem with gangsters and then hung on to power for decades, often using rather nafarious tactics on his enemies. However, the film suggests that behind closed doors, he held secrets that would have destroyed his image, his career and his life – most notably his incredibly close relationship with Clyde Tolson (Armie Hammer). J. Edgar is expected to have a major Oscar run, and hits the UK on January 20th.

Perfect Sense got it UK premiere at the Ediburgh Film Festival in June and will arrive in cinemas on October 7th, and we’ve just got hold of the UK trailer to share with you. Directed by David Mackenzie (Spread, Young Adam, Hallam Foe), Ewan McGregor stars as Michael, the head chef at a swanky Glasgow restaurant, while Eva Green is Susan, an aloof epidemiologist who catches his eye and is hearing reports across the world of people inexplicably losing their senses. They embark on a sensual adventure that sees them experiencing new and unforeseen depths of feeling and moments of pure connection. But is this because they are falling in love or is it because the world as they know it is beginning to fall apart?

While it was months ago that the first trailer for The Son Of No One dropped, it doesn’t reach US cinemas until November 4th, and no UK date is currently set. Whether the US dating suggests the producers think it has a shot at an awards run is difficult to tell, but it looks like it could be pretty good. The film is about a young cop (Channing Tatum) who is assigned to a precinct in the working class neighborhood where he grew up, with an old secret surfacing and threatening to destroy his life and family. It looks like it could be pretty good, although it’s difficult pay attention to anything except Tatum’s bizarre little bumfluff moustache. The film also stars Al Pacino, Juliette Binoche, Ray Liotta, Katie Holmes and Tracy Morgan.

Fresh from festival screenings earlier this month in Venice & Toronto comes the trailer for Andrea Arnold’s Wuthering Heights (which debuted over at The Guardian). While most movies based on classic stories rely on casting big names to attract audiences, Arnold’s movie goes for little knowns – as her BAFTA winning Fish Tank did. Indeed it’s the very first screen role for James Howson, who plays Heathcliff. It’ll be interesting to see if Arnold has managed to conquer Emily Bronte’s novel, which has been through endless adaptations, none of which have truly captured what it is about the doomed romance between the brutish Heathcliff and his foster sister Cathy that entranced readers for the past 160 years. The movie reaches UK cinemas screens on November 11th.
