Official Trailer for Ian McKellen’s Psychological Thriller ‘Hamlet’ Movie

“Revenge should have no bounds.” Kaleidoscope Ent. in the UK has revealed an official trailer for a filmed version of Hamlet, which will be playing in UK cinemas next February for one night. This brand new take on Hamlet was recorded at the Theatre Royal Windsor in 2021, during the original run of this performance. The great Ian McKellen reprises his lead role as Hamlet, a man who descends into madness as he seeks vengeance against his uncle for the alleged murder of his father. A tale of revenge that has stood the test of time, Shakespeare’s classic tragedy is reimagined for the modern day as a gripping psychological thriller. “Transcending the confines of the stage in a uniquely modern take, the film utilises nearly every room of the Theatre Royal Windsor to transform it into the immortal Elsinore Castle.” Along with McKellen, the cast also includes Jonathan Hyde, Jenny Seagrove, Steven Berkoff, Francesca Annis, and Frances Barber. These recorded versions of stage shows are becoming more & more popular, following the success of Hamilton on Disney+, and with Waitress coming up soon.
