First Teaser Trailer for Steven Spielberg’s LINCOLN Starring Daniel Day-Lewis
The first teaser for Steven Spielberg’s upcoming historical drama LINCOLN has been released. Based on Doris Kearns Goodwin’s highly-acclaimed book Team of Rivals, the film focuses on the last four months of Lincoln’s (Daniel Day-Lewis) life and the political strategizing he undertook at the close of the Civil War to ensure that slavery would be forever outlawed. We really only get to see about twenty seconds worth of footage but we’ll be getting the full trailer in just a couple of days (13th) when Spielberg and Joseph Gordon-Levitt premiere it via Google with a live Q&A afterwards.
Sally Field, Tommy Lee Jones, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, James Spader, John Hawkes, Michael Stuhlbarg, David Strathairn, Walton Goggins, David Oyelowo, Tim Blake Nelson, Bruce McGill, Jackie Earle Haley, Lee Pace, and Jared Harris co-star. Not a bad cast… Lincoln opens November 16th.
