Agreed. Hollywood is so "risk averse" that they spend 100s of millions on reboots, remakes, prequels, sequels, etc. because they feel established titles will bring in audiences. Unfortunately, the people writing, directing, etc. have little talent, so they flop as we have been seeing. That money would be far better risked on an established filmmaker like Coppola, even with his missteps, and an original story (which is what fans have been asking for) like Megalopolis.

He is doing exactly the same thing he did with One From the Heart in 1981, when he was getting in trouble with bad press because of conflicts with the distributors. Coppola booked Radio City Music Hall for one night for a preview of the movie to try and break the bad news cycle and solve the conflict with the distributors. One From the Heart tanked in the box office for being to bold and original, I love it, it's a fabulous movie, far from his best but a great movie anyway, but also because of bad press, although that was a movie that would never be a box office champ.

Finally some thought provoking cinema. Well done Mr. Coppola. Movies like this will last.

Mr. Coppola, i want to say it's a high honor to not only watch the trailer for your next epic, let along commenting on it on your youtube account. Witch i now discovered and am now subscribed to. If you ever get the chance to read this. Take your time. I want to start by saying that as of two years ago. I finally watched your War Epic, Apocalypse Now (1979). Before i have may say about it, yes. I read about how painful the production was in great detail and from many others that have described about it. I can only imagine what how harsh those days for you and your entire cast and crew. That being said, it was all worth it in the end. Because you sir crafted THE Greatest War Epic i've ever had the pleasure of watching and would gladly own a dvd blue copy of. The films story, characters and the environment of war was beautifully portrayed for that. Last thing i wish to say is that Marlon Brando was absolutely perfect for the part of Colonel Walter E. Kurtz and in my opinion. There will never be another actor of his caliber. He was truly one of a kind. God rest his soul. With that out of the way. I've heard many of great deals about this passion project of yours, based on everything i've read about it so far and i can tell you good sir. Is that i cannot wait for this one. The scale and scope of how this film's described as sounds like a Classic Epic in the making for The Modern Age of Cinema. An element that has since been absent for years in Hollywood. Where everything about there films just goes about following the next trend in things, rather making films to entertain moviegoers and miss the basic understandings of why we love movies. With many small exceptions here and there. Like say Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021), Denis Villeneuve's Dune Film Franchise (2021 - Present) and Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer (2023) ect. What this project is what i'm seeing is a return to those Classic Epics from the days of old and i can say i'm a huge fan of films. Mainly the ones with large scaled budgets types that give the film such a grand scaled and theatrical feel to it. Like entering a new world, bigger then your own. Now, upon reading the list inspirations you've gathered for this film. The part where you described it as a Roman Epic film set in Modern America. I was instantly on board to see this in theaters. Along with the ideas of your readings of the Roman historian Sallust and William Bolitho Ryall's book Twelve Against the Gods (1929) sounds like absolute genius use of inspiration to make a film about Lucius Sergius Catiline and Marcus Tullius Cicero and have those characters and their characterizations portrayed through Adam Driver as Cesar Catilina and Giancarlo Esposito as Mayor Franklyn Cicero. Another thing i can't to look forward to is the music. Combined the Roman aspect of it. It was jumping with excitement when reading that when Osvaldo Golijov wanted the score to blur the line between music and sound design. Given the ambiguity surrounding how the city and music of Rome is to sound for this film and that He relied on Hollywood portrayals and composed a Roman suite inspired by Miklós Rózsa's score for Ben-Hur (1959). That film i saw a few years back is one of my all time favorite Classical Epics and music for that film is one of Miklós Greatest Music Scores of his career. God rest his soul as well. Seeing that Chariot scene in the trailer gave me the idea of what to expect when the music hits for that scene and more so during the film. I'll also be checking out some of your older films, when i get the chance. But until then, i await this next Grand Epic to hit the big screens. If you read this, i want to say thank you making the time too and thank you for never giving up on this film. I'm sure many will love it. Take care, Mr. Coppola, God bless to you and your family.

40 years in the making; that's dedication. Thank you for preserving the art of cinema.

Now THAT's how you make a trailer, folks. Give me glimpses, tastes, but don't give away the whole thing. You had my curiosity, Francis. Now you have my attention :)

Check's in the mail; no worries on that, OompaLoompaFu.

The curtain call and passion project of one of the last remaining cinematic masters. He sold a portion of his wine estate for $120M to stake the production. This is one for the art form's true fans - neither for critics nor box office. I myself cannot wait to watch it.

One film reviewer's positive title & subtitle: Francis Ford Coppola’s Wild and Delirious Fever Dream Inspires New Hope for the Future of Movies. More than 40 years in the making, Coppola's epic is as personal and egoless as you could ever hope to expect from a $120 million self-portrait that doubles as a fable about the fall of Ancient Rome.

Please go and support this film & watch it in cinema. Francis came to give us something magical that movie studios wouldn’t touch. He has risked a lot to bring us this film, and it would be great for all lovers of cinema to make it worth his effort.

I'm sure it'd be amazing to see on the big screen.

Truly a pleasure to behold, now it's time to look at our society and ask ourselves: "Are we really happy?". Thank you Mr. Coppola for making wonders that make us wonder.

The title of makes me think of "Metropolis" a film mainly known for being the first feature length SciFi movie ever made, but also has themes that have somehow become relevant again after 93 years. Watching this trailer confirms my suspicion Megalopolis at minimum draws inspiration from that 1927 film.

Occult predictive programming, both of them.

Who needs to spend money on an expensive marketing campaign when you have a banging trailer and a name like that?

This deserves to be shown on as many screens here in the USA as possible.

Francis Ford Coppola is one of my heroes. As sad as it feels like a swan song for the director, I'll witness this film through the best and biggest screen possible. I don't care about critics, or what social media has to say. I want CINEMA. Mr. Coppola IS CINEMA. I'll be there.

This has my attention. Trailers can be deceiving, therefore I've learnt to curb my expectations, but from the trailer it looks like a breath of fresh air in the current desert of movies' originality.

This is omg the best thing I have seen in months :))))) I am sure a lot of people must haven't understood it and failed to realise it's potential.

Im so happy movies of this caliber are still being made this is what cinema is about thank you Mr. Coppola 🙏🏻

Speaking on behalf of all good old fashioned cinema buffs: no matter what the critics say or write, your legacy is embroidered in history as one of the very few who proved that cinema can be artistic and profoundly life changing. As always, we'll be impatiently waiting for the film to be opened in Italy. Our best wishes and good luck. In bocca al lupo Francis.

Hi, Mr.Coppola I just wanted to pay my respects to your wife who expired recently. Just keep going with movies like this. Don't stop!

Classicism mixed with realistic sci fi, through the lenses of a visionary architect is a great framework. If u manage to balance both micro and macro elements of narrative, it'll be unforgettable. Congratulations

This is one of the very few trailers I've felt the need to watch several times in a row. Combined with the first look clip it clearly transports that the filmmaker behind this had an artistic vision in which his full heart and soul was so invested, that he took a close look at every minute detail to make them fit together like a puzzle that shows a mirror to his soul. I'm looking forward to the great honor that will be experiencing this work of art in a cinema with fellow connoisseurs of this medium.

God bless Francis ford Coppola for going back to directing movies again and Kevin Costner too with his western horizon. At least these guys know what they want to make and give us what we want. Francis Ford Coppola is one of the best old school directors ever apart from Martin Scorsese, Tim Burton, Barry levinson, Brian de Palma and Steven Spielberg. He’s as good as the directors we lost over the years like William Friedkin, Tony Scott, Sidney lumet, Wolfgang Petersen, Richard donner, John frankenheimer, Joel Schumacher, Sydney pollack, and Alan J pakula.

This is honestly breath taking, already this looks like one of the most beautiful movies ever made, with a real sense of classic silent era cinema blended with modern styles and techniques. I can't wait to finally see this Magnum Opus!

Greatest director of all time making at the very least the greatest trailer of all time. Finally some real filmmaking. I cannot wait! Some touches of 1927 “Metropolis” and 1999 “Titus” in the Megalopolis trailer.

I saw this film in Cannes on Saturday 25, with the surprising presence of Mr. Coppola to present it and Mr. Wenders as a spectator. It's a visual masterpiece!

I got no idea about what the hell this is or even what the plot is, but this trailer sold me on seeing it in theaters

The fact that he makes a point of it being collaborative is a testament to what a great artist Coppola is.

Perfect trailer, not spoiling any plot or anything. 10/10👍

0:34 - what you see on the moving sign is a Latin transcript of what's being said by the announcer: "Dominae Dominique, et liberi cuiuslibet aetatis!" - "Ladies and Gentlemen and children of all ages". I'm 90% sure that "vos at convivium..." is supposed to be a partial translation of "welcome to the party" but, if so, it should read "ad convivium". Maybe it's supposed to be "vos ad convivium saluto/salutamus"?

in my opinion, he hasn't had a hit since The Rainmaker in 1997. I have also never had the opportunity to see a Coppola film in theaters. I am looking forward to this. It looks different, and that's a good thing. Amazing that he funded it himself!

Feels like a film that will underperform at the box office but which people will talk about forever. A work of art.

@ImperialMJG

I dont think it will "underperform". There is so much hype about it. But with the budget yes, maybe. Amazon MGM and Apple are the ones negotiating still and for a theatrical release. So it will have a big studio behind it in the US. And considering the hype overseas also where its already gotten most of the distribution done I think this can become a surprise hit that the studios that turned it down will regret. I f ing hope so. But no matter what, as long as it is good...who cares

As an artist and lover of film and magic I see Francis and his approach to life as an inspiration beyond just a biography of achievements and "failures." He keeps telling everyone what's possible and truly hopes they hear and use his words. He used to say "there will be a Mozart of film and some kid will pick up a camera..." This was wonderful to hear and he still brings me back to that hopeful place every artist loves to begin at. Who can not wait to see this!?
