The latest Napoleon clip demonstrates the main character’s ruthless battle techniques. Joaquin Phoenix Drowns Whole Cavalry & Is Enchanted By Vanessa Kirby’s Josephine in Napoleon Trailer
The new Napoleon trailer teases an action-packed historical drama based on Napoleon Bonaparte’s real life. The film, directed by Ridley Scott, promises to be a visually magnificent and action-packed depiction of Napoleon’s ascent to power, revealing his passionate love for Josephine and his unrivaled military ability.
Napoleon | Official Trailer 2
Ridley Scott’s Napoleon combines drama, romance, and action in the epic film of the Emperor of France’s rise to power. The trailer begins with a brutal battle scene in which Napoleon destroys a sheet of ice beneath the feet of a whole cavalry, sending them down into the sea.
The rest of the clip shows him treating the rest of his life to the same extent, but he may find his equal in Kirby’s Joséphine, who seems to have him wrapped around her tiny finger. Napoleon revolves around the French emperor’s interactions with his wife Joséphine, who appears extensively in the trailer.
The real-life journey of Napoleon makes none of the storyline developments revealed in the new trailer unexpected. However, the trailer shows much about the film’s tone and which aspects of Napoleon’s life will be highlighted.
For example, while Napoleon is the main character, it appears that Joséphine’s arc will be equally important in the film. Her power is also demonstrated in an intimate and risky scene in which she demands Napoleon accept that “you are nothing without me.” While Napoleon’s answer is not shown, this moment demonstrates that their love is as much a battleground as the war.
