Fox Searchlight has premiered the first poster for Wild directed by Jean-Marc Vallée (Dallas Buyers Club) and starring Reese Witherspoon based on Cheryl Strayed‘s memoir of the same name. Here’s the synopsis:
With the dissolution of her marriage and the death of her mother, Cheryl Strayed has lost all hope. After years of reckless, destructive behavior, she makes a rash decision. With absolutely no experience, driven only by sheer determination, Cheryl hikes more than a thousand miles of the Pacific Crest Trail, alone. Wild powerfully captures the terrors and pleasures of one young woman forging ahead against all odds on a journey that maddens, strengthens, and ultimately heals her.
The film co-stars Gaby Hoffmann, Laura Dern and W. Earl Brown and won’t be hitting theaters until December 5, which makes it a strong candidate for the fall film festival circuit and I have to assume we’ll have a trailer for it soon enough.
