Amy Adams and Christoph Waltz star in first trailer for Tim Burton’s Big Eyes: watch now

The first trailer has emerged for Big Eyes, Tim Burton’s latest film starring Amy Adams as painter Margaret Keane, whose signature is the oversized eyes she gives her figures.

When she meets and marries Christoph Waltz, he suggests trying to sell the paintings under his name, reasoning that nobody is interested in buying “lady-art”.

Sure enough, the paintings are wildly popular, and the money begins to roll in, but Margaret finds that the lie becomes increasingly hard to live with, particularly as it begins to consume her marriage.

Take a look at the new trailer, below…



This looks like the most interesting Burton project for many a year, while Adams and Waltz look to have turned in brilliant performances, the latter coming across as particularly unnerving as he begins to take ownership of the paintings in private as well as in public…

Co-starring Krysten Ritter, Terrence Stamp, Jason Schwartzman and Danny Huston, Big Eyes will open in the UK on 26 December 2014.
