Full Trailer for Survival Film ‘The End We Start From’ with Jodie Comer

“I don’t understand what this rejection of the world means.” Republic Pictures & Paramount have revealed an official trailer for an indie survival thriller called The End We Start From, from filmmaker Mahalia Belo. This premiered at the Toronto & London Film Festivals this fall, with a wide release in the US set for January. A “futuristic fable about a brand-new mother navigating a flooded world” starring Jodie Comer. Adapted from Megan Hunter’s prophetic 2017 novel, Mahalia Belo and screenwriter Alice Birch model their film on the author’s spare, elliptical prose, keeping the disaster just off-screen and letting their actors wear the pressure and tension of the story on their faces as their world gets a little smaller and a lot scarier. Also starring Joel Fry, Katherine Waterston, Gina McKee, Nina Sosanya, Mark Strong, and Benedict Cumberbatch. This seems like a movie that literally addresses the question of – should I still have a baby even though climate change is going to ruin the world in the future? If that intrigues you, then check it out. // Continue Reading ›
