... looking a tad ham-faced, ham faced upper class (a la Easy Virtue) but that's forgivable given the movie. Any ideas?
It's an adaptation of Oscar Wilde's "The picture of Dorian Gray" (shortened to just "Dorian Gray")Judging by the slightly melodramatic promo posters below it's going to be quite a dark film which will hopefully give BB the chance to break out of the shallow pretty boy mould.
It shall also be interesting to see what the actual picture itself looks like, given all the funky SFX they have nowadays and the starting material - it won't be easy to make Ben Barnes look hideous; will the bum chin be emphasised?? That being said, there'd better be an actual maimed picture - it would be such a let down if it was just psychological or if they showed Dorian's reactions but not the actual picture...
no trailer as of yet despite it being scheduled for release this year but i'll keep you posted.
