One of my cohorts raved about Dorian Gray Teaser Trailer. I don’t find it so ravenous because it’s too jagged. I like the look of the film, but the trailer would be more enjoyable if it was smoother. Colin Firth stars with Ben Barnes. If you are familiar with the classic by Oscar Wilde, you’ll know its a unique story about ”what if I never grew old and all my wickedness never scathes me, but is kept hidden in a portrait, showing my true colors.”
An early promo insert for Dorian Gray is being sent out, providing a sneak peek at what to expect from Oscar Wilde’s infamous immortal protagonist.
Ben Barnes stars in the film which tells the story of a beautiful young man named Dorian who takes Victorian London by storm. He is shown around by the charismatic Henry Wotton (Colin Firth) who introduces him to the hedonistic pleasures of the city.
Gray is then shown a portrait of himself, which he finds stunningly beautiful. In fact, he finds it so beautiful that he pledges he would give anything to stay as he is in the picture – even his soul.
The thriller is set to hit UK cinemas on September 11.
Prince Caspian actor Ben Barnes is set to take on the classic role of Dorian Gray based on Oscar Wilde’s iconic character. Barnes will not need his sword to play the character of the author’s novel, “The Picture of Dorian Gray.” This is a wonderful role to follow Prince Caspian. I look forward to seeing him as Gray.
