Overview
- The film will debut out of competition at the Venice Film Festival on September 3.
- New images spotlight Martin Scorsese as Isaiah, a wise figure who counsels Dante in the 14th‑century sequences.
- Oscar Isaac leads in dual roles as Dante and Nick Tosches, joined by Gal Gadot, Jason Momoa, Gerard Butler, John Malkovich, Al Pacino, and others.
- The narrative intercuts early‑1300s Italy with 2001, where a purported Dante manuscript surfaces from the Vatican and draws criminal interest during its authentication.
- Julian Schnabel employs black‑and‑white for the present day and color for the medieval scenes, with a Gregorian‑tinged score by Benjamin Clementine.
