Let’s watch the official US movie trailer of Seneca, the upcoming biography drama movie directed by Robert Schwentke based on a script he co-wrote with Matthew David Wilder and starring John Malkovich, Tom Xander, Geraldine Chaplin, Louis Hofmann, and Lilith Stangenberg:
SENECA
“Rome in 65 AD, the philosopher Seneca has been Emperor Nero‘s teacher, mentor and close advisor since childhood, he is significantly involved in his ascent. Nevertheless, Nero gets weary of Seneca and Nero uses a foiled attack on his life to falsely accuse Seneca of being an accomplice. While throwing a decadent party at his farmhouse, Seneca receives his surprising death sentence of Emperor Nero, delivered by a messenger. He must be dead by morning. He accepts his fate and, like Socrates, wants to depart from life after proffering a final lesson of his life philosophy to his followers. This last night becomes his final test: Who is he really? An opportunist, hypocrite and collaborator or, according to his selfimage, a morally upright, wise man looking death in the face without any fear?”
Another wild and weird movie starring John Malkovich? Well, sign me up for Seneca!
