If you were quick, you might have already watched this epic, near 6 minute long, trailer for the Hollywood adaptation of David Mitchell’s Cloud Atlas last week - before it was removed from YouTube for legal reasons.

But now the full trailer is officially available to view. The Cloud Atlas story crosses a number of time periods from the past, present and future, starring Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Ben Whishaw and Susan Sarandon (and directed by Matrix Trilogy visionaries, The Wachowski’s), and the sheer lavishness of this teaser is eye watering.

If the trailer is this epic, ELLE can’t wait for the full cinematic release in Spring next year. And if you’re worried about the wait, fear not – in an alternate reality we’ve already seen it. Twice.

Watch the trailer below.
