The first official trailer for The Danish Girl, starring Eddie Redmayne has released.
Redmayne stars at Lili Elbe, alongside Alicia Vikander who plays Gerda Wegener. The film also stars Amber Heard, Ben Whisha and Emerald Fennell.
The Danish Girl tells the true story of Danish artists Einar Wegener and his wife Gerda [Vikander]. This tender portrait of a marriage asks: What do you do when someone you love wants to change? It starts with a question, a simple favor asked of a husband by his wife on an afternoon chilled by the Baltic wind.
Her portrait model has canceled, and would he mind slipping into a pair of women’s shoes and stockings for a few moments so she can finish the painting on time. “Of course,” he answers. “Anything at all.” With that, one of the most passionate and unusual love stories of the twentieth century begins.
The Danish Girl will premiere at film festivals this fall before opening in select theaters on November 27th.
