“Man or Beast?” Head Down Guillermo del Toro’s ‘Nightmare Alley’ With the Film’s Official Poster

The trailer for Guillermo del Toro‘s new movie Nightmare Alley is on the way from Searchlight Pictures tomorrow, with the hotly anticipated film only in theaters on December 17.

While you wait, find the official poster below!

Bradley Cooper, Cate Blanchett, Toni Collette, Willem Dafoe, Richard Jenkins, Rooney Mara, Ron Perlman, Mary Steenburgen, and David Strathairn star in Nightmare Alley.

In the film…

“An ambitious young carny (Cooper) with a talent for manipulating people with a few well-chosen words hooks up with a female psychiatrist (Blanchett) who is even more dangerous than he is.”

The movie adapts the novel by William Lindsay Gresham.

Published in 1946, the novel spawned its first feature film just one year later starring Tyrone Power and Joan Blondell, and this new take was written by del Toro and Kim Morgan.
