New A Most Wanted Man Trailer – Take a look at one of Philip Seymour Hoffman’s final roles

April 12, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


While we’ll get to see Philip Seymour Hoffman pop up in a supporting part in the two Hunger Games: Mockingjay movies (which he was in the middle of shooting when he died), his final major role is in A Most Wanted Man.

Now a new trailer has arrived, giving us a fresh look at Anton Corbijn’s take on John Le Carre’s tale.

Set in Hamburg, Germany, the plot is about a mysterious man who is near death and looking to retrieve his late father’s fortune. Philip Seymour Hoffman plays a German spy chief who tries to determine the mystery man’s identity. Rachel McAdams, Willem Dafoe, Daniel Bruhl and Robin Wright co-star.

It’s due out in the UK later this year, with a July US date currently set. [Read more…]

Following the success of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, there’s been a lot of interest taking more John Le Carre’s stories to the screen.

One that’s on its way is Anton Corbijn’s A Most Wanted Man, which stars Philip Seymour Hoffman, Rachel McAdams, Willem Dafoe, Daniel Bruhl and Robin Wright. Now the first trailer has arrived, which was put together to help the independent movie get international sales.

Set in Hamburg, Germany, the plot is about a mysterious man who is near death and looking to retrieve his late father’s fortune. Philip Seymour Hoffman plays a German spy chief who tries to determine the mystery man’s identity. It’s due out in the UK in September, but no US date is currently set. [Read more…]

Philip Seymour Hoffman May Be Anton Corbijn’s Most Wanted Man

February 8, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

With the success of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, John Le Carre seems quite popular in the movie world at the moment. Anton Corbijn, director of Control and The American, is one director sniffing around a Le Carre project, as he wants to adapt A Most Wanted Man, and now Deadline reports Phillip Seymour Hoffman is in final talks to headline the movie.

Adapted by Andrew Bovell (Edge Of Darkness) from Le Carré’s spy novel, the story centres on a Chechen/Russian Muslim who moves to Hamburg illegally, where he gets caught up in the international war on terror. Hoffman will play a rogue chief of a German spy unit who tries to put together the mystery over the man’s arrival in Hamburg. It’s partially based on Murat Kurnaz, a Turkish citizen living legally in German who was arrested in Pakistan in 2001 and packed off to Guantanamo Bay, before winning release in 2006.

There’s no news on when it might start shooting, but the producers will be looking for sales at the Berlin Film Fesitval.
