Secret In Their Eyes is already being tipped as an early 2016 movie not to be missed... and the first trailer for the film has arrived.

Secret In Their Eyes

The cast is one of the big reasons that everyone is so excited about this movie as Chiwetel Ejiofor, Julia Roberts, and Nicole Kidman are all set to star; two Best Actress Oscar winners and a Best Actor Oscar nominee is not bad going.

And you can see all of them in action in this great first trailer - it looks like it is going to be a tense crime drama:

Secret In Their Eyes is based on the book by Eduardo Sacheri and has been adapted and directed by Billy Ray. This is the third feature for Ray after Shattered Glass and Breach and he has also penned screenplays for the likes of Captain Phillips, The Hunger Games and State of Play.

I cannot wait to see Ejiofor, Roberts, and Kidman team up, while Dean Norris, Michael Kelly, Lyndon Smith, and Joe Cole complete a very talented and exciting cast list.

A tight-knit team of rising FBI investigators - Ray (Ejiofor) and Jess (Roberts), along with their District Attorney supervisor Claire (Kidman) - is suddenly torn apart when they discover that Jess's teenage daughter has been brutally and inexplicably murdered.

Now, thirteen years later, after obsessively searching every day for the elusive killer, Ray finally uncovers a new lead that he's certain can permanently resolve the case, nail the vicious murderer, and bring long-desired closure to his team. No one is prepared, however, for the shocking, unspeakable secret that will reveal the enduring, destructive effects of personal vengeance on the human soul.

Interweaving past and present, this deeply layered mystery explores the murky boundaries between justice and revenge, and asks the question: how far would you go to right an unfathomable wrong?
