Ahead of its one-night-only theatrical release in the UK this March, CinEvents has released a poster and trailer for director Kit Monkman’s (The Knife That Killed Me) Shakespeare adaptation Macbeth.
Shot entirely against a green screen and using background matte painting and computer modelling to generate the world in which the action plays out, the film is described as “a radical new adaptation which puts the audience’s engagement with the story centre-stage, amplifying the theatrical context of the original and creating truly innovative and thrilling cinematic vistas, whilst maintaining the language and themes of Shakespeare’s original play.”
Macbeth will be released in UK cinemas for one night only on March 13th.
