TIFF Trailers: Eastern Promises

Date:

It will be a hometown hero's welcome at TIFF for Canadian filmmaker David Cronenberg who'll be premiering Eastern Promises – the film will get the red carpet treatment and today we've got the 2nd trailer for the film stashed behind the poster image below (click on it folks)!

Look for IONCINEMA.com coverage of the mafia film set for a limited 14th of September release and then a wide release one week later.

Penned by Steve Knight, this follows the mysterious and ruthless Nikolai (Mortensen), who is tied to one of London's most notorious organized crime families. His carefully maintained existence is jarred when he crosses paths with Anna (Watts), an innocent midwife trying to right a wrong, who accidentally uncovers potential evidence against the family. Now Nikolai must put into motion a harrowing chain of murder, deceit, and retribution.
