Watch The Trailer For Luca Guadagnino’s ‘Queer’

Watch Daniel Craig fall in love with a younger man in the just-released trailer for Luca Guadagnino’s Queer

Arthouse streamer Mubi has released the trailer for Luca Guadagnino’s film Queer. The film is based on the short novel Queer by William S. Burroughs, which was written between 1951 and 1953, and finally published in 1985.

Queer will be released in Canadian cinemas on December 13, 2024, following its World Premiere at this year’s Venice International Film Festival and its North American premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival in September.

Guadagnino’s Queer stars Daniel Craig, Drew Starkey, Academy-Award nominee Lesley Manville, Jason Schwartzman, Henrique Zaga, Omar Apollo, Andra Ursuta, Andres Duprat, Ariel Shulman, Drew Droege, Michael Borremans, David Lowery, Lisandro Alonso and Colin Bates. The film also features music from Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross.

Based on the emotive novel, the film stars actor Craig as an American expat named William Lee living in post-war Mexico City, who spends his days almost entirely alone, his only focus: sex with men and heroin. His encounter with dashingly nerdy Eugene Allerton (Starkey), an expat former soldier, new to the city, shows him, for the first time, that it might be finally possible to establish an intimate connection with somebody.

“Queer is a strange fever dream of exploration into what it was like to be a gay man living in another country after World War II. Daniel Craig’s version of Lee is initially comedic until he simply becomes sad to watch, always longing for connection and his next fix. Starkey is marvelous in a quasi-ingenue role, propelling their intimate scenes to almost pornographic territory,” IN‘s Matthew Creith wrote after the film’s screening at the Toronto International Film Festival in September (You can read IN‘s full review of the film right here).
