Tom Hiddleston Woos The Deep South In First Trailer For Musical Biopic I Saw The Light
1 December 2015 9:03 AM, PST | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »
“Everybody has a little darkness in them,” whispers Tom Hiddleston in the first full trailer (see below) for musical biopic I Saw The Light. Headlining the drama as the late, great Hank Williams, the British thesp is taking a firm step back from the superhero scene, and it’s a creative departure that will even have him flexing his husky vocal chords for Marc Abraham’s feature.
Released in select theaters on November 27, I Saw The Light chronicles William’s barnstorming rise to fame, who won over the hearts and minds of Alabama with a string of heart-wrenching and raw performances. But for all of the artist’s brilliance, the late singer-songwriter faced numerous problems with drug abuse and alcoholism, leading him to become increasingly violent and erratic before his eye-catching career came to an abrupt halt at the age of 29.
Joining Hiddleston for the ride is Godzilla and Age of Ultron star Elizabeth Olsen. »

"Boy, I'm a professional at making a mess of things." Sony Pictures Classics has unveiled an official trailer for I Saw the Light, the upcoming film starring Tom Hiddleston as legendary country singer Hank Williams. Despite Tom Hiddleston's performance, the film received fairly dismal reviews after premiering at Tiff a few months ago (read Marco's review). Word is the film was re-cut and they pushed back the release a few months for them to figure out a new strategy. Now we get our first glimpse and it doesn't look that promising - but it depends on how much you like country music. In addition to Hiddleston, the cast includes Elizabeth Olsen, David Krumholtz, Bradley Whitford and Cherry Jones. Give it a watch below.

First Trailer For Tom Hiddleston-Led Hank Williams Biopic ‘I Saw the Light’
1 December 2015 7:59 AM, PST | The Film Stage | See recent The Film Stage news »
Once set to have arrived in theaters last week, Sony Pictures Classics decided to move I Saw the Light, the Hank Williams biopic which finds Tom Hiddleston in the leading role, to 2016. Coming from longtime producer Marc Abraham (Children of Men, Dawn of the Dead), whose directorial debut was Flash of Genius, the film will now arrive in March and today brings the first trailer.
We said in our review, “The opening to Marc Abraham‘s I Saw the Light holds a lot of intrigue. Based on Colin Escott‘s biography about hillbilly legend Hank Williams, the start goes from a faux black and white newsreel interview with producer Fred Rose (Bradley Whitford) recounting how one-of-a-kind the singer was to a magically lit performance by Tom Hiddleston as Williams (the actor sings every note and the actors playing his band pluck every string). He’s sitting on a stool with a hazy spotlight pouring down, »
