David Cronenberg is at his best in decadent futuristic thriller

In March, a first teaser trailer for David Cronenberg's “Cosmopolis” came out and, in all fairness, it was so hot it was highly not recommended for a work environment. A safer, longer version is now available.

Check it out below, embedded at the end of the post, but *please note that some discretion is still recommended.

The film is based on a novel by Don DeLillo, and tells the story of a millionaire playboy set in a not so distant future.

Useless to say, it's a decadent story of money, vice and human baseness, presented in a language so typically Cronenberg.

“Cosmopolis” will premiere at this year's Cannes Film Festival, and will open in France on May 23.
