Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus Movie Trailer

At long last but not least we may watch the movie trailer of Doctor Parnassus:

I didn't expect such a fantastic movie! I'm amazed by the quality of what we see in this trailer of the Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus! I understand now why Director Terry Giliam was pushing so hard for the movie to be produced and can but appreciate his dedication to save the last footage of Heath Ledger.

The accident that took Heath Ledger's life in the midst of production could have brought the movie to an end. But thanks to Terry Gilliam's determination to honor the work done by Heath Ledger and to pursue the movie, the Imaginarium of the Doctor Parnassus should hit theaters on September 24, 2009.

Tery Gilliam is able to keep Heath Ledger's scenes thanks to a plot trick: his role was recast to have Johnny Depp, Jude Law, and Colin Farrell portray "physically transformed versions" of the character.


Today we have a first glimpse of Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell in the Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus:

"In the present day, immortal 1,000-year-old Doctor Parnassus (Christopher Plummer) leads a travelling theatre troupe that offers audience members a chance to go beyond reality through a magical mirror in his possession.
