\u201cFreedom is no fear, just like Tom Cruise,\u201d Benicio Del Toro tells Leonardo DiCaprio, mid-car-chase, in the latest trailer for Paul Thomas Anderson\u2019s \u201cOne Battle After Another<\/a>.\u201d And that\u2019s right before DiCaprio heaves himself out of a moving car.<\/p>\n

Anderson\u2019s 10th feature, his second Thomas Pynchon-inspired adaptation after \u201cInherent Vice,\u201d is likely to skip fall festivals altogether after being a no-show on this week\u2019s Venice<\/a> or TIFF lineups<\/a>. The pot-fueled Southern California noir \u201cInherent Vice\u201d actually was Anderson\u2019s last movie to play festivals \u2014 then the New York Film Festival \u2014 as he opted to skip the circuit for Oscar nominees \u201cPhantom Thread\u201d and \u201cLicorice Pizza.\u201d<\/p>\n

More from IndieWire<\/p>\n

The new trailer offers a deeper look at \u201cOne Battle After Another\u2019s\u201d action set pieces, all set to Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s rousing \u201cFreedom\u201d off her 2016 album \u201cLemonade.\u201d With DiCaprio uniting with Anderson for the first time, the cast also includes del Toro, Regina Hall, Teyana Taylor, and Chase Infiniti. The film centers on a group of radical revolutionaries known as the French 75 (no, not the classic brunch cocktail) who disbanded more than a decade ago but are brought back into action once a former nemesis reappears.<\/p>\n

DiCaprio plays the ex-activist Bob Ferguson, who now lives in seclusion and is known as \u201cGhetto Pat,\u201d with \u201cPresumed Innocent\u201d breakout Infiniti starring as his teenage daughter, now a budding revolutionary herself who\u2019s still coming of age amid the group\u2019s latest battle. Penn stars as Col. Steven J. Lockjaw, the group\u2019s biggest adversary and a hate-driven white supremacist, with Taylor, Hall, and Del Toro as Bob\u2019s former comrades.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne Battle After Another,\u201d at this point, won\u2019t play the New York Film Festival, either, as its opening day (September 26) coincides with the start of NYFF\u2019s 2025 edition. The only festival the film could play at this point would be Telluride, which feels unlikely, and the event doesn\u2019t share its lineup until just before Labor Day weekend anyway.<\/p>\n

Anderson\u2019s perennial composer Johnny Greenwood returns to write the music for \u201cOne Battle After Another,\u201d which shot on 35mm with VistaVision cameras throughout California in the first half of 2024.<\/p>\n
