You may watch below the official trailer of Tale of Tales, the upcoming fantasy movie directed by Matteo Garrone and starring Salma Hayek, John C. Reilly, Toby Jones, Vincent Cassel, Shirley Henderson, Hayley Carmichael, Bebe Cave, Alba Rohrwacher, Stacy Martin, Jessie Cave, Jonah Lees, and Christian Lees:
TALE OF TALES
Once upon a time the very first fairy tales were even more Grimm.
“Sea monsters, monarchs, ogres, and sorcerers: Salma Hayek and John C. Reilly star in this breathtaking Baroque fantasy from the visionary director of Gomorrah. Based on three spellbinding stories of magic and the macabre by 17th-century folklorist Giambattista Basile, Tale of Tales unleashes a barrage of mind-bogglingly gorgeous and fantastical imagery as it brings to life the (mis)adventures of three kings: in the kingdom of Darkwood, the King (Reilly) and his Queen (Hayek) attempt to conceive a child through very unusual means; meanwhile, in Highhills, the none-too-bright monarch (Toby Jones) marries off his daughter to brutal ogre while developing a strange obsession with breeding a giant flea; and, the sex-obsessed crown of Strongcliff (Vincent Cassel) is in for a shock when the woman he falls in love with is not quite what she seems. Overflowing with surreal, dazzling surprises, this intoxicating cinematic spectacle is a delirious excursion into the dark heart of fairy tales.”
We also have three posters:

Well looks like we have a magnificent extravaganza ahead of us: I can’t wait to see Matteo Garrone’s twisted take on the brothers Grimm’s fairy tales!
The release date of the movie Tale of Tales is set to April 22, 2016 (in theaters and VOD).
