Watch: Carey Mulligan in first official trailer for Suffragette!

Last April the UK teaser trailer for Suffragette starring Carey Mulligan, Meryl Streep, and Helena Bonham Carter was released. Now, the first full-length trailer (wow, it looks amazing and Carey's knocking it out of the park and that's just the trailer! She's definitely going to get another Oscar nod for this role! I can't wait to see her in this movie!) has just been released today along with the news this morning, according to Deadline, it will open the 59th BFI London Film Festival. The film will receive its European premiere on Wednesday, October 7 at the Odeon Leicester Square, attended by the filmmakers and cast with a live cinecast from the red carpet and simultaneous screenings taking place at cinemas across the UK.
 
Pathé has set an October 30th UK Cinema release for Suffragette, directed by Sarah Gavron from a script written by Abi Morgan. Meanwhile, Focus Features had dated it for a US theater release on October 23rd in New York and Los Angeles, expanding October 30 and November 6 to additional cities.

Inspired by true events, the film also stars Ben Whishaw, Anne-Marie Duff, Brendan Gleeson, Romola Garai, and Natalie Press.

Watch the Suffragette trailers (there are two versions, loved the first one, which you'll see below...I think it's the US version with a few more very intense scenes!), read the official synopsis, and see some trailer screen caps of CM below...

Suffragette Official Trailer Screen Captures

 featuring Carey Mulligan as Maud

Here's the official synopsis for Suffragette:

SUFFRAGETTE is a thrilling drama that tracks the story of the foot soldiers of the early feminist movement, women who were forced underground to pursue a dangerous game of cat and mouse with an increasingly brutal State. These women were not primarily from the genteel educated classes, they were working women who had seen peaceful protest achieve nothing. Radicalized and turning to violence as the only route to change, they were willing to lose everything in their fight for equality – their jobs, their homes, their children and their lives. MAUD was one such foot soldier. The story of her fight for dignity is as gripping and visceral as any thriller, it is also heart-breaking and inspirational.
