EXCLUSIVE: 'Doubt' Poster Premiere!
Filed under: Drama, Fandom, DIY/Filmmaking, Movie Marketing, Images, Posters
Cinematical has just received this exclusive poster for the film Doubt (click image above to enlarge), starring Meryl Streep, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Amy Adams. Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning play of the same name, Doubt was written, adapted for the screen and directed by John Patrick Shanley (whose last directorial effort came in the form of the very awesome Joe Versus the Volcano). Set at a Catholic School in the Bronx in 1964, Doubt tells of a stern principal and nun (Streep) who accuses a priest (Hoffman) of "acting inappropriately" with a young black student, and the younger, inexperienced nun (Adams) who comes between the two.
While on Broadway, Doubt was the talk of the town, and we expect this big-screen version to give us more than one buzz-worthy performance, especially with a cast like this. I can't be the only one looking forward to a little Doubt this December. Have you seen the play? Whaddya think?

I am so excited. I saw the play a few months ago and loved it. I've been thrilled ever since I heard that Meryl Streep was starring and the original playwright was directing.
The poster isn't too eye-catchy, but I like it. Definitely leaves you wanting more though.

This has been up in front of the Angelika for a couple of days now, but still, it's a very good poster, and I'm absolutely looking forward to the film.

I've seen the play in London. And it is was brilliant - such a terrific text. I can't wait to see Meryl Streep playing Sister Aloysius... shouting at Philip seymour Hoffman. I think the poster is simple and powerful. Very good. However, I thought the release was for October... as per imdb.com.

I saw this poster in the movie theater earlier this evening. Knowing nothing about the play or movie, the sheer harsh graphic beauty of the poster drew me from across the room. Delightful to see such a bold, minimalist approach! I couldn't stop looking over at it while waiting to sit down.
