Adam Driver Stops Time in First 'Megalopolis' Teaser - Watch Now!
We’re getting our first look at Francis Ford Coppola‘s highly-anticipated new movie!
On Saturday (May 4), the 85-year-old Oscar-winning director debuted the first teaser trailer for his next movie Megalopolis starring Adam Driver.
In the teaser, Adam, 40, makes his way out of a window at the top of a skyscraper and slowly inches towards the edge of the building. He then bends down to look at the street below and yells “Time stop!” and the world freezes.
Adam then leans back and regains his footing before snapping time to start moving again.
Along with sharing the teaser on Instagram, Francis paid tribute to his late wife Eleanor, who died on April 12, 2024.
