Irish actors Andrew Scott and Paul Mescal star in the first trailer for the hotly Oscar-tipped film All of Us Strangers.

The film, set to arrive in Irish cinemas early in the new year, was written and directed by Andrew Haigh, based on the 1987 Taichi Yamada novel, Strangers.

The first trailer shows Andrew Scott in the film's leading role, Adam, where he meets and begins a relationship with Paul Mescal's Harry. The pair reflect on their family and childhood, and Adam talks of his parents - played by Claire Foy and Jamie Bell.

The synopsis of the film reads: "One night in his near-empty tower block in contemporary London, Adam has a chance encounter with a mysterious neighbour, Harry, which punctures the rhythm of his everyday life. As a relationship develops between them, Adam is preoccupied with memories of the past and finds himself drawn back to the suburban town where he grew up, and the childhood home where his parents appear to be living, just as they were on the day they died, 30 years before."

Soaked in colour and '80s influences, the film premiered at the 50th Telluride Film Festival on August 31, 2023, and is scheduled to be released by Searchlight Pictures in the United States on 22 December 2023, over a month before its release in Irish cinemas on January 26, 2024.
