Nightmare Alley cast discuss Guillermo del Toro’s neo noir thriller in new featurette

December 2, 2021 by Amie Cranswick

With just over two weeks to go until Nightmare Alley arrives in cinemas, a new featurette has been released for Guillermo del Toro’s star-studded thriller which sees the filmmaker joined by Cate Blanchett, Willem Dafoe, David Strathairn, and Ron Perlman to discuss the making the film; watch it here…

When charismatic but down-on-his-luck Stanton Carlisle (Bradley Cooper) endears himself to clairvoyant Zeena (Toni Collette) and her has-been mentalist husband Pete (David Strathairn) at a traveling carnival, he crafts a golden ticket to success, using this newly acquired knowledge to grift the wealthy elite of 1940s New York society. With the virtuous Molly (Rooney Mara) loyally by his side, Stanton plots to con a dangerous tycoon (Richard Jenkins) with the aid of a mysterious psychiatrist (Cate Blanchett) who might be his most formidable opponent yet.

Nightmare Alley is set for release on December 17th.
