JAMES MCAVOY & JESSICA CHASTAIN Hot New Trailer: ‘The Disappearance Of Eleanor Rigby’

I have been WAITING to see a trailer for this film, ‘The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby.’ James McAvoy and Jessica Chastain star in this movie. This concept of this movie is what’s intrigued me since I first heard about it. It’s a love story about an on-off couple that was originally conceived as two films: ‘The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Her’ told the story from Jessica’s character’s point of view. ‘The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Him’ told the story from James’ character’s point of view.

Both ‘Her’ and ‘Him’ premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival. Then writer-director Ned Benson combined the two films into a third film, that tells both sides of the story. It’s called ‘The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Them.’ Here’s the trailer for the ‘Them’ version.

Although I love the idea of two movies told from different points of view, I don’t know if they would work today. No one likes cliffhangers or to wait. I’d imagine the movies wouldn’t do well with a theatrical release because so many people would just wait until both were available for streaming so they didn’t have to wait for the other one. The idea is SO creative, though. What do you think of the trailer for ‘Them’?
