First Clips Of Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard in Macbeth

While I’m sorry we don’t really get to see any quality Lady Macbeth action in these clips, I love the gritty, understated look of the film, and I know Fassbender is gonna kill this part. Macbeth doesn’t have a release date yet, or a distributor for that matter, but it will. Oh, it will.
