DORIAN GRAY Movie Trailer with Ben Barnes
Check out the trailer for DORIAN GRAY starring Ben Barnes, Colin Firth, Rebecca Hall, and directed by Oliver Parker.
I read the book, "The Picture of Dorian Gray," when I was in school and remember liking it. But unfortunately, judging from the Dorian Gray trailer, I'm not sure they did justice to the story. Although I do like Colin Firth.
Dorian Gray will be released to theaters in the UK on September 9, 2009. Watch the trailer below.
Dorian Gray Synopsis: Based on the classic novel by Oscar Wilde, Dorian Gray tells the story of a strikingly beautiful young man named Dorian (Ben Barnes). He arrives in Victorian London and is swept into a social whirlwind by the charismatic Henry Wotton (Colin Firth), who introduces Dorian to the hedonistic pleasures of the city. When a portrait of Dorian is unveiled, such is it's beauty that he makes a pledge: he would give anything to stay as he is in the picture - even his soul.
DORIAN GRAY Movie Poster
Check out a new poster of DORIAN GRAY starring Ben Barnes, Colin Firth, Rebecca Hall, Caroline Goodall, Michael Culkin and directed by Oliver Parker.
I always liked the story of Dorian Gray. While I am not sure about Ben Barnes in the lead role, I am willing to give it a shot.
Dorian Gray Synopsis: A corrupt young man somehow keeps his youthful beauty eternally, but a special painting gradually reveals his inner ugliness to all.

I didn't think this would be a movie that I'd want to watch, but the trailer looks great. It's going to be fun. I'm actually looking forward to it.
