Margot Robbie in Damien Chazelle's Babylon

Margot Robbie plays Nellie LaRoy in Babylon from Paramount Pictures.

Oscar winning filmmaker Damien Chazelle‘s follow up to La La Land, Babylon will be with us in a few months. Today we get a glimpse at the film’s UK Trailer thanks to Paramount Pictures.

Always make a scene in 1920’s Hollywood, Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie will be. Chazelle likes his films big and loud and the trailer teases the Jazz age certainly was. One of wild parties, dancing and drug fuelled will silent films became talking pictures.

Not much is known on what this film’s actually about. What we are teased is the lives of actors (Robbie) and veteran (Pitt) are wild fun days. At the same also like a love letter to the early golden age of cinema as Tinsel Town’s finest people will hear their voices. All about their ambitions falling short and now party like it’s the end of the world.

Chazelle has been working on the idea right after he finished First Man back in 2018. The project originally had Emma Stone instead of Robbie in female lead role. Like many things scheduling prevented Stone taking up the role.

From Damien Chazelle, Babylon is an original epic set in 1920s Los Angeles led by Brad Pitt, Margot Robbie and Diego Calva, with an ensemble cast including Jovan Adepo, Li Jun Li and Jean Smart. A tale of outsized ambition and outrageous excess, it traces the rise and fall of multiple characters during an era of unbridled decadence and depravity in early Hollywood.

The rest of the cast includes Tobey Maguire, Olivia Wilde, Samara Weaving, Jean Smart, Li Jun Li, Jovan Adepo, Katherine Waterston, Flea, Lukas Haas, Rory Scovel, P.J. Byrne, Spike Jonze, Chloe Fineman, Jeff Garlin, and Max Minghella.

Babylon is set for an 20th January 2023 UK and Irish cinema release (6th January 2023 in the U.S).
