The trailer for Lisa Joy's 'Reminiscence,' starring Hugh Jackman and Rebecca Ferguson, will make you nostalgic for when movies like this had a commercial chance in hell of theatrical success.
Following a brief Q&A with the cast and the writer/director , Warner Bros. has now made the first teaser trailer foravailable for all to enjoy. It looks like a banger, an old-school, seemingly big-budget big stars + high concept fantasy which goes theroute of blending hardboiled detective melodrama with newfangled “What if?” sci-fi. It’s also the kind of “no IP” flick that arguably risked being sold to a streamer absent the controversial theaters/HBO Max scheme of 2021.
In this case, as climate change has turned the world to ruin, a flooded Miami, the population has retreated into a process which allows folks to re-experience their own memories. After all, when the present-tense leaves little to look forward to, nothing is more addictive than the past.
The trailer, which is pretty long without being aggressively spoiler-y, involves a mysterious femme fatale with whom our rugged veteran of the most recent cataclysmic wars gets ensnared. The trailer is cryptic in terms of their past relationship, or whether there even was a past relationship, but you get plenty of ridiculously good-looking movie stars looking good and actually engaging in something beyond PG-rated flirtations.
In terms of “what we get,” it’s an old-school studio biggie, with a budget of around $65 million. That’s cheaper than the disastrous 2014 Johnny Depp/Rebecca Hall sci-fi flick, which to be fair basically jumped the shark as soon as Depp’s scientist had his consciousness inserted into a machine. Moreover, by 2021 standards, especially with the whole “in theaters and on HBO Max” variable still in play, I’m sure Warner Bros.
