Check out the trailer for Robert Pattinson‘s upcoming thriller Cosmopolis, hitting limited theaters on August 17. Here’s the synopsis: Unfolding in a single cataclysmic day, the story follows Eric Packer (Pattinson) – a 28-year old financial whiz kid and billionaire asset manager – as he heads out in his tricked-out stretch limo to get a haircut from his father’s old barber, while remotely wagering his company’s massive fortune on a bet against the Chinese Yuan. Packer’s luxe trip across the city quickly becomes dizzyingly hellish as he encounters explosive city riots, a parade of provocative visitors, and is thrust into a myriad of intimate encounters. Having started the day with everything, believing he is the future, Packer’s perfectly ordered, doubt-free world is about to implode. Cosmopolis, directed by David Cronenberg, also stars Juliette Binoche, Jay Baruchel, Kevin Durand, Samantha Morton, and Paul Giamatti.
