As if this wasn’t already at the top of my most anticipated list for this year, now that the for trailer for Martin Scorsese‘s Silence has been released has solidified its position. Based on the novel by Shûsaku Endô, the film stars Adam Driver and Andrew Garfield as priests heading to Japan to find their missing mentor played by Liam Neeson.
Silence opens in theaters this Christmas.
Martin Scorsese’s SILENCE tells the story of two Christian missionaries (Andrew Garfield and Adam Driver) who face the ultimate test of faith when they travel to Japan in search of their missing mentor (Liam Neeson) – at a time when Christianity was outlawed and their presence forbidden. The celebrated director’s 28-year journey to bring Shusaku Endo’s 1966 acclaimed novel to life will be in theaters this Christmas.
