Official Trailer and Release Date for Glass Castle Movie

By May 21, 2017Adaptations, News

If you were a fan of the memoir by Jeanette Walls, The Glass Castle then you were probably pretty happy at the news that it’s being adapted for movie. The adaptation will star Woody Harrelson, and Naomi Watts and since casting was announced and the first images released from The Glass Castle movie it seems like we’ve heard little else.

However, all that changed this week as the official trailer for The Glass Castle movie is out, and it looks amazing! As a fan of Harrelson I got pretty excited about the casting and now I’ve seen the trailer I’m even more excited.

The trailer appears to see the story in soft focus, shown through the slightly romantic view Walls has of her parents in the book. There’s none of the harsh reality from the book but that’s not to say the movie won’t have all the gritty, realistic events of the book, which is one of my favourite memoirs of all time.

Along with the first official trailer, we also have a release date for The Glass Castle, it’ll be out on 11th August. Book fans will have to decide whether it stays true to the book but the movie certainly looks promising.

That means if you haven’t yet read The Glass Castle and want to before the movie is released, you have plenty of time to do so!
