Following the film's premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, Paramount Pictures has released the full trailer for Alexander Payne's Downsizing, his long-in-development sci-fi shrinking comedy starring Matt Damon (The Bourne Identity, Saving Private Ryan) and Kristen Wiig (Ghostbusters, Saturday Night Live). Check out the Downsizing trailer in the player below!

Downsizing imagines what might happen if, as a solution to over-population, Norwegian scientists discover how to shrink humans to five inches tall and propose a 200-year global transition from big to small. People soon realize how much further money goes in a miniaturized world, and with the promise of a better life, everyman Paul Safranek (Matt Damon) and wife Audrey (Kristen Wiig) decide to abandon their stressed lives in Omaha in order to get small and move to a new downsized community — a choice that triggers life-changing adventures.

The cast also includes Christoph Waltz (Django Unchained, Inglorious Basterds), Hong Chau (Inherent Vice, Treme), and Jason Sudeikis (We're the Millers, Saturday Night Live).

Directed by two-time Oscar-winner Alexander Payne (Nebraska, The Descendants, Sideways).

Soll gut sein... und sieht originell plus unterhaltsam aus.

Einen Schrumpfungsfilm gab es ja schon lange nicht mehr. Oder einen Film mit normalgroßen Menschen, die kleineren begegnen. Mir fallen spontan nur Frank Oz' "Der Indianer im Küchenschrank" und die TV-Miniserie "Gullivers Reisen" mit Ted Danson ein - beide von Mitte der 90er (Filme mit größeren Wesen wie "Avatar" oder "Prometheus" jetzt mal außen vor). Und dann noch von Alexander Payne und mit Matt Damon - sehr nett!  :respekt:

Finde das Thema auch cool. Habe vor Kurzem noch "Der Indianer im Küchenschrank" gesehen. Aber es gab sicher mehrere Filme mit großen und kleinen Menschen. Spontan fällt mir da schon der Gulliver mit Jack Black ein.
A: Welchen Bond-Film magst du am liebsten?
B: Den mit Daniel Crack, also genauer gesagt Casino Neural.
