The first teaser trailer for In the Heart of the Sea certainly registered on the P.O.G. radar. The second trailer for In the Heart of the Sea has officially put the film on the map.
Ron Howard (Rush, Willow) is directing this gritty recount of one of the most insane experiences in human history. It’s based on the horrific true story that went on to inspire the classic, Moby Dick. In fact the author of the book, Herman Melville, is one of the crew members on board. He went on to pen the classic tale by focusing on the whale and downplaying the real life horrors that actually occurred.
The true story plays out like if Jaws was on Captain America’s steroids and attacked the ships from Master and Commander, which left the remaining crew marooned on life rafts…with a bunch of Hannibal Lectors. It is an intense story. It was unclear from the first teaser trailer if Howard would be touching on those harsher elements and it seems he might be. Marvel’s Thor, Chris Hemsworth, will be portraying First Mate Owen Chase and will be joined fellow actors, Cillian Murphy, Ben Whishaw, Benjamin Walker and Brandon Gleeson among others. Enjoy the trailer.
In the Heart of the Sea opens March 15th, 2015.
