Second Trailer for 'The Secret Scripture' Drama Starring Rooney Mara

Written by

“Make up your mind, but leave me out of it!” Vertical Entertainment has debuted a brand new official US trailer for the upcoming release of the romance film The Secret Scripture, the latest from filmmaker Jim Sheridan. Rooney Mara and Vanessa Redgrave play the same woman, named Roseanne McNulty, who grew up in the midst of the religious and political upheavals in Ireland during the 1920s and ’30s. The story starts with Redgrave in a mental institution, where she has kept a diary of “secret scriptures” from her life. It flashes back to tell her story growing up, which is when Mara takes over. The cast also features Jack Reynor, Aidan Turner, Theo James, Eric Bana, Tom Vaughan-Lawlor and Omar Sharif Jr. This doesn’t look any better than it did last year when the first international trailer arrived, and it’s never a good sign when the film is delayed for a year to a rather quiet US release. But you never know. Check it out below. ›››
