We didn’t think it would be possible to release any more posters, clips, trailers, etc., for Ben Wheatley’s High-Rise. Well, what the hell do we know, right?

Courtesy of Magnolia Pictures, High-Rise will hit On Demand outlets on April 28th, followed by a limited theatrical release on May 13th.

Scripted by Amy Jump, the film stars Tom Hiddleston (The Avengers, Crimson Peak), Jeremy Irons (Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice), Sienna Miller (American Sniper), Luke Evans (Dracula Untold), and Elisabeth Moss (“Mad Men”). It chronicles the savage breakdown of social order inside a giant residential apartment block.

Synopsis:
High-Rise stars Hiddleston as Dr. Robert Laing, the newest resident of a luxurious apartment in a high-tech concrete skyscraper whose lofty location places him amongst the upper class. Laing quickly settles into high society life and meets the building’s eccentric tenants: Charlotte (Miller), his upstairs neighbor and bohemian single mother; Wilder (Evans), a charismatic documentarian who lives with his pregnant wife, Helen (Moss); and Mr. Royal (Irons), the enigmatic architect who designed the building. Life seems like paradise to the solitude-seeking Laing. But as power outages become more frequent and building flaws emerge, particularly on the lower floors, the regimented social strata begins to crumble, and the building becomes a battlefield in a literal class war.
