Charlie Hunnam & Robert Pattinson Take A Dangerous Journey In New Trailer For James Gray's 'The Lost City Of Z'

Director James Gray has spent most of his career thus far telling stories from the intimate depths of his native New York City, but for his upcoming “The Lost City Of Z,” he literally left the country and ventured into the depths of the jungle, bringing his cast led by Charlie Hunnam, Robert Pattinson and Tom Holland along with him.

Based on the book by David Grann, the film chronicles what happens when British explorer Lieutenant Colonel Percy Fawcett’s search for a lost city deep in the Amazon grows into a decades-long obsession that costs him his reputation, his home life with his wife and children, and much more. And the struggle between ambitions and personal responsibility are at the fore of the drama.

“One of the things that [director James Gray] and I felt strongly that we wanted to explore in the film, was the conflict between family life and the exterior demands that are made on us and the social and economic demands that we all need to deal with in life, being balanced or in conflict with the internal drive, to be the people we want to be and achieve the things that we want to achieve,” Hunnam told EW.

“The Lost City Of Z” opens on April 14, 2017.
