Four years after ‘First Man’, Damien Chazelle is preparing to return with ‘Babylon’, whose furious trailer has been released. A chance for him to revisit the birth of Hollywood, alongside Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie.
After the first man’s trip to the moon, his Neil Armstrong biopic, Damien Chazelle reconnected with the world of cinema, which he paid tribute to by declaring his love for musicals in La La Land. This time Babylon turns to Hollywood, which will return to his work.
And its scandals, if this first completely insane trailer is to be believed, with an atmosphere full of sex, drugs and… jazz. In a film that should have its share of wild nights, the main character, played by Brad Pitt, will obviously have a hard time walking right away. And where Nellie LaRoy (Margot Robbie) will be able to confront the snake.
The first images are reminiscent of Martin Scorsese’s The Wolf of Wall Street, perhaps due to the presence of Margot Robbie in the credits of those two films. And this trailer for Babylon is more about setting the tone than previewing the story the Whiplash director and screenwriter is telling.

While we also meet Tobey Maguire, a year after his appearance on the big screen in Spider-Man’s No Way Home, these images from Babylon also show us who could be the revelation of the film: Diego Calva Hernandez, who is in the third position. in the credits and which will be the first major role.
In our theaters on January 18th, Babylon also stars Jean Smart, Olivia Wilde, Max Minghella, Katherine Waterston and Flealy, bassist of the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Its music will be composed by Justin Hurwitz, an Oscar winner for his work on La La Land. If the result is as successful as its trailer, 2023 will begin with a second party. This time on screens.
