Official 'Snowden' Trailer Directed by Oliver Stone and Starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt
One man fights for the privacy of the public.
The thrilling life of Edward Snowden is making it to the big screen via the Oliver Stone directed film Snowden. After releasing a teaser last year, its official trailer has finally surfaced which captures the phrase “stuck between a rock and a hard place” using political controversy. The upcoming film stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Edward Snowden and is based on the books Time of the Octopus by Anatoly Kucherena and The Snowden Files by Luke Harding. Throughout the trailer you’ll get a taste of the transition Edward Snowden experiences as he makes the change from Army enlistee to CIA employee. Refusing to follow the usual protocol when it comes to the invasion of public privacy, Edward Snowden makes a crucial decision to do what he feels is righteous.
Snowden is expected to release in theaters in the U.S. on September 16. Check out the trailer above, which also features Shailene Woodley, Zachary Quinto, Tom Wilkinson and Nicolas Cage.
