Trailer Watch: Tom Ford’s Nocturnal Animals with Amy Adams and Jake Gyllenhaal
For his first film since his directorial debut A Single Man in 2009, Tom Ford has adapted Austin Wright’s 1993 novel “Tony and Susan.” The resulting thriller, Nocturnal Animals stars Amy Adams as Susan, an L.A. art-gallery owner whose ex-husband Edward (Jake Gyllenhaal) writes a violent novel (called “Nocturnal Animals”) based on their former relationship. “I did something horrible to him,” Susan confesses in the (above) trailer for the film, which also stars Armie Hammer, Michael Shannon, Isla Fisher, Laura Linney, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson.
After winning the Grand Jury Prize at this year’s Venice Film Festival, and screening recently at the Toronto Film Festival, the neo-noir will hit theaters November 18.
