Watch The First Trailer For DEMOLITION Starring Jake Gyllenhaal

Opening in select theaters in the U.S. on April 8, 2016, check out the first trailer for Jean-Marc Vallée’s DEMOLITION.

Davis (Jake Gyllenhaal), a successful investment banker, struggles after losing his wife in a tragic car crash. Despite pressure from his father in law Phil (Chris Cooper) to pull it together, Davis continues to unravel. What starts as a complaint letter to a vending machine company turns into a series of letters revealing startling personal admissions. Davis’ letters catch the attention of customer service rep Karen (Naomi Watts) and, amidst emotional and financial burdens of her own, the two form an unlikely connection.

With the help of Karen and her son Chris (Judah Lewis), Davis starts to rebuild, beginning with the demolition of the life he once knew.

The film will screen this weekend at the Toronto International Film Festival.

Vallée’s recent films, 2013’s DALLAS BUYERS CLUB, starring Matthew McConaughey, Jennifer Garner and Jared Leto, (3 Oscars – Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor and Best Hair and Makeup) debuted at Toronto and WILD (2014), starring Reese Witherspoon and Laura Dern, screened at Telluride and Toronto and garnered two Oscar nominations.
