We’ve got a new trailer and poster for you to check out for the WWII thriller Mr. Jones, starring James Norton (Grantchester, Little Women), Vanessa Kirby (The Crown, Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw), and Peter Sarsgaard (Garden State, The Magnificent Seven). Here’s the synopsis for the film:
Agnieszka Holland’s thriller, set pre-WWII, sees Hitler’s rise to power and Stalin’s Soviet propaganda machine pushing their “utopia” to the Western world. Meanwhile an ambitious young journalist, Gareth Jones (Norton) travels to Moscow to uncover the truth behind the propaganda, but then gets a tip that could expose an international conspiracy, one that could cost him and his informant their lives. Jones goes on a life-or-death journey to uncover the truth behind the façade that would later inspire George Orwell’s seminal book Animal Farm.
This movie looks like a fascinating look at a true story within WWII. I love a good war movie, and Norton is a great actor that I know can deliver. Check out the trailer and poster below, and see Mr. Jones in theaters this April.
