Downsizing
The first teaser preview forDownsizinghas arrived . The film , which will see Matt Damon contract down to miniature size of it in edict to live in a tiny house , has been over ten years in the making . The picture was directed by multi - Oscar - winner Alexander Payne ( The Descendants , Sideways ) , from a handwriting he compose with hisSidewaysco - author Jim Taylor ( who also served upJurassic Park IIIandI Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry ) .
Downsizingboasts an impressive ensemble , which Damon joined three years ago . Alongside theJason Bournestar in thecast areGhostbusters ’ Kristen Wiig andSpectre ’s Christoph Waltz , as well as Laura Dern , Jason Sudeikis , Neil Patrick Harris , Hong Chau and Brigette Lundy - Paine ( who of late impressed in Netflix’sAtypical ) . In thoroughgoing contrast to the moving picture ’s petite guinea pig topic , that ’s a sincerely massive mould in price of wizard office . Not to mention , the film is say to be Payne ’s biggest yet , with esteem to budget .
Payne has comparedDownsizingto the grim sci - fi anthology seriesBlack Mirror , state that his movie “ take something inherently absurd and ridiculous , but tells it with utter seriousness . ”That earnestness really comes across in this tormenter trailer , which highlights the film ’s aforementioned whiz - constellate cast , rather than focus in on the trapping crisis sci - fi irony at the heart of the piece .
However , as challenging as this appropriately tiny tormenter is , it only serves to leave Payne and Damon ’s fans wanting more . The footage here deliberately does n’t let in anything during or after the literal shrinking process , which is undoubtedly the motion-picture show ’s main appeal . gratefully , at the end of the television , a full ‘ preview debut ’ is promised for September 12 . Hopefully , that promo will be a little less coy about the main events of the movie .
Of of course , laggard for trailers are nothing new , but it ’s uncommon that you see them for films like this – they ’re usually reserved for the blockbuster tentpoles . presumptively , Payne ’s investor are hope to make serious bank withDownsizing , if this is how the studio is promoting it .
