The first official trailer for the
Grand Piano thriller has been unveiled by Magnet Releasing, featuring
Elijah Wood spending the bulk of the running time sitting behind the titular instrument
Setting the entire film during a concert adds not only originality, but an endlessly thrilling exercise in classic suspense.
Directed by
Eugenio Mira (
Agnosia), the film stars Wood as a disgraced master pianist who returns from a hiatus only to have his life threatened while on stage. If he misses a single note, an anonymous sniper (
John Cusack) will shoot him in the head.
This near real-time scenario has been written by
Damien Chazelle (
The Last Exorcism Part II). The film did well at Fantastic Fest earlier this fall.
Also starring
Alex Winter and
Tamsin Egerton,
Grand Piano arrives in theaters on March 7th, 2014.
Check out the trailer, which calls to mind some of the best Hitchcock moments.

In a packed theater, in front of the expectant audience, Tom finds a message written on the score: ‘Play one wrong note and you die.’ Without leaving the piano, Tom must discover the anonymous sniper’s motives and look for help without anyone realizing.
