What Is Is What Was and What Will Be

To hear filmmakers Andy Wachowski and Lana Wachowski and Tom Tykwer talk about it, the upcoming Cloud Atlas is going to be an epic mind-bender.

If you don’t believe them, take a gander at this most-intriguing five-minute trailer for the film, which features Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Jim Broadbent, Hugo Weaving, Jim Sturgess, Ben Wishaw, Susan Sarandon, and Hugh Grant playing multiple parts, weaving some era-spanning stories together in what promises to be quite the spectacular way.

Back yet? Good.

I. Cannot. Wait until Oct. 26 to see David Mitchell’s novel up on the big screen.
