Following a teaser last month, Searchlight Pictures has unveiled the first trailer for director Yorgos Lanthimos’ latest offbeat comedy, 'Poor Things,' starring Emma Stone.
as Stone plays Bella Baxter, a woman who — thanks to her scientist father, played Frankenstein-style by Willem Dafoe — is brought back to life after dying, but with a caveat: Her brain has been replaced with that of her unborn child.
“Under Baxter’s protection, Bella is eager to learn,” a synopsis for the film reads. “Hungry for the worldliness she is lacking, Bella runs off with Duncan Wedderburn , a slick and debauched lawyer, on a whirlwind adventure across the continents. Free from the prejudices of her times, Bella grows steadfast in her purpose to stand for equality and liberation.”
