A first official look at Ethan Hawke as Nikola Tesla in Tesla, the upcoming biography drama movie written and directed by Michael Almereyda:
“Brilliant, visionary Nikola Tesla (Ethan Hawke) fights an uphill battle to bring his revolutionary electrical system to fruition, then faces thornier challenges with his new system for worldwide wireless energy. The film tracks Tesla’s uneasy interactions with his fellow inventor Thomas Edison (Kyle MacLachlan) and his patron George Westinghouse (Jim Gaffigan). Another thread traces Tesla’s sidewinding courtship of financial titan J.P. Morgan (Donnie Keshawarz), whose daughter Anne (Eve Hewson) takes a more than casual interest in the inventor. Anne analyzes and presents the story as it unfolds, offering a distinctly modern voice to this scientific period drama which, like its subject, defies convention.”
He looks like a distinguished man, doesn’t he?
Besides Ethan Hawke, the cast also includes Eve Hewson, Kyle MacLachlan, Lucy Walters, Jim Gaffigan, Josh Hamilton, Blake DeLong, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Hannah Gross, Donnie Keshawarz, Rebecca Dayan, and Lois Smith.
The release date of the movie is set to August 21, 2020 (on VOD and in theaters).
