The trailer for Gary Oldman-starrer Mank is out. It has an intense, moody, and vintage vibe to it. It is directed by acclaimed filmmaker David Fincher with a screenplay by his late father Jack Fincher, Mank is a biopic of the alcoholic but talented screenwriter Herman J Mankiewicz (also known as Mank).
The trailer is shot artistically, and gives us a daring peek into Oldman’s character. It seems like the actor suits the part and has gone to great lengths to bring the character of Mank alive. Thanks to the way he looks to how he speaks, Mank appears to be a ‘real’ person with real problems.
The synopsis of Mank reads, “1930s Hollywood is reevaluated through the eyes of scathing wit and alcoholic screenwriter Herman J Mankiewicz as he races to finish Citizen Kane.”
Along with Gray the movie also features Amanda Seyfried, Lily Collins, Arliss Howard, Tom Pelphrey, Sam Troughton, Ferdinand Kingsley, Tuppence Middleton, Tom Burke and Charles Dance.
From December 4, 2020 , Mank will start streaming on Netflix
