It's time! 20th Century Fox has unveiled the first teaser trailer for Alejandro G. Iñárritu's The Revenant and it's jaw-dropping stunning. This film has been shooting in Canada for the last six months. It's taking so long because cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki is filming using only natural light, no lighting equipment or fillers or anything. You can tell what that looks like with this footage and it's remarkable. Leonardo DiCaprio stars as a frontiersman in the 1800s who sets out on a path of vengeance against those who left him for dead after a bear mauling. The cast includes Tom Hardy, Domhnall Gleeson, Will Poulter and Lukas Haas. This looks like one of the finest movies of the year, hands down. You don't want to miss this!
Here's the first teaser trailer for Alejandro G. Iñárritu's The Revenant, direct from 20th Century Fox:
Inspired by true events, The Revenant is an immersive and visceral cinematic experience capturing one man’s epic adventure of survival and the extraordinary power of the human spirit. In an expedition of the uncharted American wilderness, legendary explorer Hugh Glass (Leonardo DiCaprio) is brutally attacked by a bear and left for dead by members of his own hunting team. In a quest to survive, Glass endures unimaginable grief as well as the betrayal of his confidant John Fitzgerald (Tom Hardy). Guided by sheer will and the love of his family, Glass must navigate a vicious winter in a relentless pursuit to live and find redemption. The Revenant is directed and co-written by renowned filmmaker, Oscar winner Alejandro G. Iñárritu (Birdman, Babel). Fox will release The Revenant in theaters on December 25th, Christmas Day.

I can't describe how excited I am for this. They are all amazing and I can not wait to see how this all comes together. Chivo is amazing. It can't come soon enough.

He has a movie coming up where he has like 30 personalities....Leo is gonna get a lifetime achievement award before he gets an Oscar...LMAO

Looks great, except for the fake white horse contraption Leo's riding toward the end. Since I've ridden only fake horses in my life, I'm in!

Btw, for an amazing read, check out Lord Grizzly which is probably what this movie is based off of. I read it in high school and it was harrowing.

I stand corrected. Have you read The Revenant?

I read the book too. The trailer looks truer to the feel of the book than I thought it would (wild and haunting). Crazy story. Should make a great film considering the talent involved.

Pretty neat minimalist trailer. Very Terrance Malick-ian.

Does it show a lot? I said I don't need to see anything from this movie to go see it. the cast and director is enough but if it's just a tease I'd watch. So what do you guys say?

Great visuals, but the trailer doesn't say much about the plot...so I'd say it doesn't show too much

Awesome thanks.
IamSlave on Jul 17, 2015

yeah...I'm way in! If this is what Hardy passed Suicide Squad for...I can't blame him.

I liked this trailer when I watched it earlier in the day, but it's really crept under my skin the whole day. Haven't stopped thinking about it and I've watched a few times more since. Anyone else think there's a bit of A Field In England/Valhalla influence? Really digging the vibe....

Looks cool! Is there a movie tho where Domhnall Gleeson isn't in?

Well this is something look for. Speechless...

For some reason, without thinking, my first connection was, indeed, Jeremiah Johnson with Robert Redford (and Sidney Pollack, of course). Didn't know about the book. So far you proved to be credible on the matter of film history so I will follow you and look for that movie with Richard Harris too. Who knows, maybe I did watch it before ...

Looks incredible. (wish it didn't say 'inspired by actual events' though)

Blown away by this trailer, I showed it to my wife. The first thing she said was that's not a horse Leo is riding. Watched it again and sure enough: fake horse. Moral of the story? Don't get married.
