Margot Robbie and Colin Farrell discover a new world in trailer for The Big Bold Beautiful Journey. Watch

Sony Pictures has just released the trailer for A Big Bold Beautiful Journey, featuring stars Margot Robbie and Colin Farrell in the lead roles. The narrative has the two protagonists go through a series of doors that take them to a particular memory from their lives. Kogonada, known for films like Columbus (2017), After Yang (2021), and the series Pachinko (2022), will be at the helm of the project.
The trailer starts with Sarah (Margot) and David (Colin) at a wedding, which both are attending alone, and two lonely people joining the celebration of a marriage seems to be a good starting point for their relationship as characters. Soon after the wedding, David is seen driving, and his GPS assistant asks him, 'David, would you like to go on a big, bold, beautiful journey?' to which he answers, 'Yes.' He then picks up Sarah, and the two of them begin this journey, knowing nothing of what lies ahead of them.

They start going through different doors together, soon realising that these are gateways to past memories. David makes a visit to his high school on the same day he got rejected by a girl he loved, while Sarah visits her mother from when she was sick and has since then passed away. The trailer seems to suggest that the doors don't take them to some random memories but take them to times which made an impact on their lives. Although, later on, David says, 'I want to go back to a time when I thought everything would work out for me,' so it's unclear whether they can control their destinations.
A Big Bold Beautiful Journey seems to revolve around the theme of companionship and choosing to be happy in one's life. Although the film allows them to go into their past and maybe learn from it, David's last dialogue in the trailer is about accepting one's reality and sharing it with someone. He says, 'No matter who you are in your life, you just need someone to share it with.'
Apart from Margot Robbie and Colin Farrell, the cast of the film also includes Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Hamish Linklater, Billy Magnussen, Lily Rabe, Jodie Turner-Smith and Yuvi Hecth.

How Fantastic Four: First Steps gives Marvel's ‘first family' a second chance

Marvel's Fantastic Four: First Steps is not just another superhero film. It is a second shot at a franchise that has never quite worked on screen. As The Conversation points out, every past Fantastic Four movie - from the early 2000s to the 2015 misfire - has been labeled a flop. Fans are hoping this time will be different. In comics, though, the Fantastic Four have always been a big deal. Marvel's Fantastic Four: First Steps aspires to redefine the franchise's legacy.( (Marvel/Disney via AP)) When Stan Lee and Jack Kirby introduced them in 1961, they ripped up the old superhero playbook. There were no masks. No secret lairs. Reed Richards, Sue Storm, Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm were public figures, squabbling like any real family while saving the world. Marvel superheroes leading normal lives These were not just action comics; they broke social ground. Reed and Sue exchanged vows in 1965 - the first superhero wedding. In 1968, Sue gave birth to Franklin Richards, making her the first pregnant superhero mom. The Fantastic Four also introduced the Black Panther in 1966's issue #52 - a historic first for a major Black superhero. And while it was not made official until decades later, scholars believe Ben Grimm was always meant to be Jewish, adding another layer of representation.

Spider-Man's debut in 1963 featured the team right on the cover of Amazing Spider-Man #1, a move that boosted both characters. By 1965, Reed and Sue's wedding turned into a wild crossover with 19 superheroes and 28 villains crammed into one issue. Stan Lee and Jack Kirby even appeared in the comic, blurring the line between fiction and reality. As comics historian Douglas Wolk has said, those first hundred issues are 'Marvel's Bible and manual,' reports The Conversation. Marvel's Phase Six and beyond Now, Fantastic Four: First Steps will launch Phase Six of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which will culminate in Avengers: Secret Wars in 2027. The film is not just a reboot - it is meant to carry the same spark that made the original comics so influential: heroes who are powerful, flawed, and deeply human. FAQs Who is Zac Efron playing in Fantastic Four? Marvel hasn't confirmed Zac Efron as part of the cast, and no official role has been announced for him. Who is playing the new Fantastic Four? The cast for Fantastic Four: First Steps includes Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, Pedro Pascal, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach. Is Fantastic Four from Marvel?
