Apple Original Films have revealed the emotionally-charged official trailer for the highly anticipated ‘Swan Song’, which will debut in select theatres and globally on Apple TV+ on Friday December 17.
The futuristic film, starring two-time Academy Award winner Mahershala Ali, will join a strong lineup of Apple Original Films awards contenders including Sundance hit ‘CODA‘ and ‘The Tragedy of Macbeth’, which arrives on Apple TV+ In early January.
Set in the near future, “Swan Song” is a powerful, emotional journey told through the eyes of Cameron (Mahershala Ali), a loving husband and father diagnosed with a terminal illness who is presented with an alternative solution by his doctor (Glenn Close) to shield his family from grief. As Cam grapples with whether or not to alter his family’s fate, he learns more about life and love than he ever imagined. “Swan Song” explores how far we will go, and how much we’re willing to sacrifice, to make a happier life for the people we love.
Alongside Ali, who also serves as producer; ‘Swan Song’ also features an ensemble of co-stars including eight-time Academy Award nominee Glenn Close, Academy Award nominee Naomie Harris, Golden Globe Award winner Awkwafina and Golden Globe Award nominee Adam Beach.
