Whilst the average cinema-goer is no doubt aware of his name, the typical movie buff is most likely familiar with some of Danny Boyle‘s work. His most successful film is Slumdog Millionaire, but he’s also done various other films in the past, including Trainspotting, Sunshine and 127 Hours. He’s not the most prolific of directors, but when he makes a film it is certainly worthy of attention.

This brings us to the recent Trance trailer. Trance, of course, is the latest film by Danny Boyle. Straight away, there are various themes and similarities that make this instantly recognizable as a ‘Boyle movie’. It can easily be argued that all of Boyle’s films have had a strong human and emotional theme. Whilst the likes of Slumdog Millionaire and Trainspotting are prime examples, even Sunshine focuses on the human and emotional aspects of a more unusual situation; the same goes for 127 Hours.

Watch the fourth clip from Danny Boyle's Trance from Fox Searchlight. The film stars James McAvoy, Vincent Cassell and Rosario Dawson. Danny Boyle helms the film which finds theaters on April 5th, 2013. John Hodge writes alongside Joe Ahearne. Also in the cast are Matt Cross, Wahab Sheikh and Danny Sapani. Fine art auctioneer Simon (McAvoy), in league with a gang led by underworld boss Franck (Cassel), plots the audacious theft of a masterpiece by Goya from a major public auction. When Simon double-crosses the gang during the robbery, Franck retaliates violently and knocks him unconscious.

We’ve got just over a week to wait for Danny Boyle’s Trance, and all that we’ve seen so far has our interest piqued for the psychological crime-thriller.

James McAvoy, Vincent Cassel, and Rosario Dawson take the lead here, making up an impressive leading trio. And after catching the first TV spot, MSN have debuted a new featurette, taking us behind the scenes of Boyle’s return behind the camera.

A fine art auctioneer mixed up with a gang joins forces with a hypnotherapist to recover a lost painting. As boundaries between desire, reality and hypnotic suggestion begin to blur the stakes rise faster than anyone could have anticipated.

Starring alongside McAvoy, Cassel, and Dawson will be Tuppence Middleton, Danny Sapani, Lee Nicholas Harris, and Wahab Sheikh.

Boyle is directing from a script co-written by Joe Ahearne (Apparitions) and John Hodge (Trainspotting), partly inspired by Ahearne’s 2001 TV movie of the same name.

Danny Boyle’s Trance is pretty much guaranteed to be awesome, and earns its place and then some amongst our must-see movies of the month.

The psychological crime-thriller stars James McAvoy, Vincent Cassel, and Rosario Dawson as the leading trio, and that’s definitely a cast we’re looking forward to seeing.

The latest red-band trailer debuted last month, giving us a brilliant new look at the film. And now Fox have released the first slightly more work-friendly TV spot ahead of its release in the Us in a few weeks’ time.

James McAvoy is a master thief in Danny Boyle’s “Trance”, a remake of a British movie that I don’t think anyone outside of the UK has seen. You won’t be able to say that about this version of “Trance”, though, not with Boyle’s name attached. After all, this guy made the movie about the fella who cut off his own arm after getting it stuck in a bolder watchable. Dude’s talented. Check out the clip for yourself below. Try not to use what you’ve learned here to pull off an actual robbery, though. Danny Boyle won’t be there to help you with slick camerawork and whatnot.

As boundaries between desire, reality and hypnotic suggestion begin to blur the stakes rise faster than anyone could have anticipated.

See James McAvoy in the new character poster for Trance, directed by Danny Boyle Joe Ahearne and John Hodge-scripted film opens in theaters on April 5th, 2013, and we have a fresh new poster for the film which also includes Rosario Dawson, Vincent Cassel, Matt Cross, Wahab Sheikh and Danny Sapani. Pic looks intriguing, and is produced by Boyle alongside Christian Colson. Naturally, with Boyle at the wheel, the same man responsible for films like Slumdog Millionaire, The Beach, Millions, 127 Hours, Trainspotting and Shallow Grave (the last two both collaborating with Hodge), Trance should have winner written all over it, but it's certainly not for everyone.

Danny Boyle’s Trance has fast become one of our most anticipated films of the spring, with a brilliant leading cast in James McAvoy, Rosario Dawson, and Vincent Cassel.

The first trailer landed earlier in the year, only serving to fuel our anticipation. And now Yahoo Movies have released a new red-band trailer. And as you can imagine, this one’s not suitable viewing for work.

They also released a 20-second teaser preview with this poster that you can take a gander at below, take a ganderers.

Danny Boyle’s Trance is fast becoming one of the spring’s most anticipated movies. The psychological crime-thriller marks the director’s eagerly-awaited return behind the camera for his first film since 127 Hours, and following his work directing the Opening Ceremony of the Summer Olympics last year.

The first trailer for the film landed earlier in the month. And since then, we’ve seen three teaser posters, with one for each of the leading trio in James McAvoy, Rosario Dawson, and most recently Vincent Cassel.

Now the first quad poster for the film has arrived, giving us another great look at the film. (Albeit with Cassel’s pose on the poster somewhat reminiscent of that of Joseph Gordon-Levitt in Rian Johnson’s Looper.)

Danny Boyle’s return to the big screen this spring with Trance has been building momentum and anticipation nicely in recent weeks.

We saw an excellent first trailer earlier in the month. And that’s since been followed with the first two teaser posters in a new set, with some great new taglines, adding to the intrigue surrounding the film.

Those first teasers gave us a look at James McAvoy and Rosario Dawson, and now Orange have (somewhat colour-appropriately) debuted the third in the set, with Vincent Cassel buried beneath the circles.

Danny Boyle makes his eagerly-anticipated return to the big screen this spring with Trance, following the time off he took to direct the Opening Ceremony of the Summer Olympics last year.

The New Year brought with it a rather brilliant first trailer, giving us a great first full look at the film.

And following it up was the first teaser poster, which launched a new set earlier in the week. Now Yahoo Movies have given us the second in the set, which sees the face of Rosario Dawson buried beneath the circles.

Danny Boyle’s Trance is fast becoming one of the most anticipated films of the spring. Coming off the back of directing the Opening Ceremony of last summer’s Olympics, we can’t wait to see what Boyle brings to the table on his return to the big screen.

We got a handful of great first-look images late last year. And the New Year brought with it the awesome first trailer. And now the first teaser poster has debuted over at Total Film, giving us the first in a new set of three.

Somehow a movie called “Trance” about a criminal who gets put into hypnosis in order to recover some criminal-inclined memory and Danny Boyle just seems to go together like peanut butter and jelly. Check out the first trailer for the “Slumdog Millionaire” director’s latest, “Trance”, based on a British TV movie of the same name. Though I doubt if the original movie had this much visual and musical pizazz. I could be wrong, of course. Apparently getting James McAvoy to remember some hidden memories includes sleeping around with Rosario Dawson, who is playing the hypnotherapist.

Danny Boyle’s Trance is a film we’ve been looking forward to for a long time. The writer-director boarded the project back in May last year, following on from the Oscar-nominated 127 Hours.

Since then, Boyle has been involved with a staged production of Frankenstein, as well as directing the Opening Ceremony to this summer’s Olympics.

But with both now firmly behind him, we have Trance back in centre position. The release date has recently been set for March 2013 here in the UK, and now USA Today have given us the first images from the film.

Danny Boyle’s visually inclined film “Trance” is a crime drama starring Rosario Dawson and James McAvoy, as well as a menacing Vincent Cassel. This is apparently Boyle’s first film where a woman is his main lead, and he calls it an “emotionally charged” noir film. Plus, it’ll probably look really, really cool with a great soundtrack. Get your first official looks at the film below, including a behind-the-scenes shot with the Boylester himself doing what he does. The film is a remake of a 2001 British movie of the same name by writer/director Joe Ahearne. That one co-starred Susannah Harker of “Ultraviolet” fame.
