‘Megalopolis’ Teaser Trailer: Adam Driver Is on the Edge in Francis Ford Coppola’s Long-Awaited Sci-Fi Epic


Adam Driver is on a mission to rebuild New York City amid a looming disaster in the first official trailer for Francis Ford Coppola’s 'Megalopolis.'

When asked by GQ about the potential repercussions of self-funding such a massive endeavor, the director responded, “I couldn’t care less about the financial impact whatsoever. The City of New Rome must change, causing conflict between Cesar Catilina (Adam Driver), a genius artist who seeks to leap into a utopian, idealistic future, and his opposition, Mayor Franklyn Cicero (Giancarlo Esposito), who remains committed to a regressive status quo, perpetuating greed, special interests, and partisan warfare. Torn between them is socialite Julia Cicero (Nathalie Emmanuel), the mayor’s daughter, whose love for Cesar has divided her loyalties, forcing her to discover what she truly believes humanity deserves.”
