EX MACHINA Starring Oscar Isaac and Domhnall Gleeson Gets a Trailer and Poster

A24 has released a new teaser poster and trailer for Alex Garland‘s Ex Machina, which stars Domhnall Gleeson as a computer programmer who wins a contest to spend the week with a reclusive genius played by Oscar Isaac, however it turns out that this will be much more than a week’s vacation when a hyper-intelligent robot (played by Alicia Wikander) gets in the mix.

Garland previously wrote the scripts for 28 Days Later and Sunshine, and will be making his directorial debut here.

Ex Machina opens in theaters April 10, 2015.

Alex Garland, writer of 28 Days Later and Sunshine, makes his directorial debut with the stylish and cerebral thriller, EX MACHINA. Caleb Smith (Domhnall Gleeson), a programmer at an internet-search giant, wins a competition to spend a week at the private mountain estate of the company’s brilliant and reclusive CEO, Nathan Bateman (Oscar Isaac). Upon his arrival, Caleb learns that Nathan has chosen him to be the human component in a Turing Test—charging him with evaluating the capabilities, and ultimately the consciousness, of Nathan’s latest experiment in artificial intelligence. That experiment is Ava (Alicia Vikander), a breathtaking A.I. whose emotional intelligence proves more sophisticated––and more deceptive––than the two men could have imagined.
