Ben Wheatley’s adaptation of J.G. Ballard’s book certainly has the opulence of the upper levels down. In the first trailer for High-Rise, Tom Hiddleston’s Robert Laing narrates all the creature comforts of the building. But there’s a revolution coming.

We know from the book (as well as seeing the film itself) that High-Rise is a tale of materialism and classism spinning rapidly out of control. This trailer only hints at the chaos to come.
