Final trailer released for In the Heart of the Sea

The final trailer has been released for director Ron Howard’s forthcoming movie In the Heart of the Sea.

Based on Nathaniel Philbrickā€™s best-selling book about the dramatic true journey of the Essex stars Chris Hemsworth as the vesselā€™s veteran first mate Owen Chase; Benjamin Walker as its inexperienced Captain, George Pollard; Cillian Murphy as second mate Matthew Joy; and Ben Whishaw as novelist Herman Melville

In the winter of 1820, the New England whaling ship Essex was assaulted by something no one could believe: a whale of mammoth size and will, and an almost human sense of vengeance. The real-life maritime disaster would inspire Herman Melvilleā€™s Moby-Dick. But that told only half the story. ā€œIn the Heart of the Seaā€ reveals the encounterā€™s harrowing aftermath, as the shipā€™s surviving crew is pushed to their limits and forced to do the unthinkable to stay alive. Braving storms, starvation, panic and despair, the men will call into question their deepest beliefs, from the value of their lives to the morality of their trade, as their captain searches for direction on the open sea and his first mate still seeks to bring the great whale down.

In the Heart of the Sea will be released in UK cinemas on 26 December 2015. Watch the trailer at the top of this article.
