The first trailer for Ridley Scott’s Napoleon just dropped starring Joaquin Phoenix as the historical French Icon. Phoenix looks excellent in the role (Of course he does, it’s a movie trailer), but the part of the film that seems most intriguing is the role of Vanessa Kirby as his wife, Josephine (Mission Impossible: Deadx Reckoning Part 1/ Possibly The Fantastic Four).

Napoleon is set to hit theaters this Thanksgiving.

Napoleon is a spectacle-filled action epic that details the checkered rise and fall of the iconic French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, played by Oscar®-winner Joaquin Phoenix. Against a stunning backdrop of large-scale filmmaking orchestrated by legendary director Ridley Scott, the film captures Bonaparte’s relentless journey to power through the prism of his addictive, volatile relationship with his one true love, Josephine, showcasing his visionary military and political tactics against some of the most dynamic practical battle sequences ever filmed.
