Leonardo DiCaprio is front and center in the official trailer for One Battle After Another, the 10th feature film from writer-director Paul Thomas Anderson.
DiCaprio plays Bob Ferguson, a revolutionary on a quest to find his daughter. DiCaprio â sporting a mustache, beanie, and bathrobeâ begins the trailer on a payphone, saying code words in an attempt to reconnect with his comrades. When that fails, the action-packed trailer intensifies with gunshots, high-speed drives, and robberies. The footage ends with DiCaprioâs Ferguson pleading with Benicio del Toroâs character for help.
âViva la revoluciĂłn,â DiCaprio screams before exiting the building.
