If Oldboy director Park Chan-wook's new film Stoker is even half as good as its marketing materials I will be satisfied. The trailer debuted a few months ago with Nicole Kidman doing her best sinister step-mother and this new poster gives us a closer look at her daughter, India (Mia Wasikowska).
Stoker looks to have a place within a long history of tales of disturbed women living with dark secrets in large, lavish houses. The poster reflects this with its Gothic elements that draw upon both botany illustration and Victorian death portraiture.
Wentworth Miller wrote the screenplay, which made 2010’s Black List of best unproduced screenplays, under the pseudonym Ted Foulke. Stoker is in theaters March 1.
