The first trailer has appeared online for Captive, Jerry Jameson's religious drama in which Kate Mara's single mother turns to her faith in order to extricate herself from a hostage situation orchestrated by David Oyelowo's escaped criminal.
The film is based on a true story, in which Mara's character read to her captor from The Purpose Driven Life, a book written by the evangelical Christian author Rick Warren. Using Warren's teachings, she set about searching for a non-violent way to solve the situation, forging a human connection into the bargain.
Take a look at the new trailer, below…
Mara and Oyelowo look suitably compelling here, although there is an obvious risk of this one coming off like a 90-minute advert for Warren's book. Still, if you're going to do a "message movie", you may as well rope in a couple of A-listers to head up the cast. Co-starring Mimi Rogers and Michael K. Williams, Captive will open in the US on 18 September 2015, with a UK date to be confirmed.
