Two new trailers have been released for writer and director Paul Thomas Anderson’s (Punch-Drunk Love, There Will Be Blood, Licorice Pizza) latest film, One Battle After Another. The film boasts an impressive cast that includes Leonardo DiCaprio, Regina Hall, Sean Penn, Alana Haim, Teyana Taylor, Wood Harris, Benicio del Toro, and Shayna McHayle. It has the feel of Taken, only grittier, as DiCaprio’s character’s daughter has been kidnapped, and he goes on the run to find her.
One Battle After Another, formerly known as The Battle of Baktan Cross or Desert Highway or BC Project, is inspired by Thomas Pynchon’s postmodern 1990 novel titled Vineland. The film’s longline states, “When their evil enemy resurfaces after 16 years, a group of ex-revolutionaries reunites to rescue one of their own’s daughter.“
This looks like it’s going to be excellent. Check out the trailers below, and watch One Battle After Another when it’s released in theatres on September 26th.
