Leonardo DiCaprio and Teyana Taylor are unloading full clips in new character posters for One Battle After Another. Paul Thomas Anderson’s crime comedy hits theaters on September 26th, but Warner Bros. is rolling out these images to keep fans of the filmmaker on the hook until then. Presumably, there will be more to go along with the trailer that dropped last month.
Anderson’s second Thomas Pynchon adaptation after Inherent Vice and his first film since 2021’s Licorice Pizza, the film stars DiCaprio as Bob Ferguson, a former 1960s hippie whose past and estranged family come back to haunt him, jeopardizing the future of his daughter.
In DiCaprio’s poster, he looks as if he’s settling in for a long-range shot possibly at an escaping target. Taylor stars as Profidia, and in her image her big pregnant belly protrudes as she’s prepared to unleash a hail of bullets.
Also in the One Battle After Another cast are newcomer Chase Infiniti, Sean Penn, Regina Hall, Alana Haim, Wood Harris, Benicio Del Toro, and Shayna McHale. With a cast like that, there will definitely be more posters.
