After a special pre-screening at the İKSV Galas, Francis Ford Coppola’s much-awaited film Megalopolis was released in cinemas on September 27 and still can be seen.
This film, which took 40 years to bring to life, offers audiences an epic blend of science fiction and drama. The story revolves around Cesar Catilina, a visionary architect determined to rebuild New York as "New Rome" following a devastating disaster. However, his utopian dreams clash with the corrupt Mayor Franklyn Cicero, and their conflict becomes inevitable as Catilina faces significant obstacles in an environment marred by scandals and corruption.
Coppola, inspired by the ancient Roman story of Cicero and Catilina, brings this tale into a futuristic, sci-fi context, touching on themes of politics, architecture, philosophy, power, love, and loyalty. With a star-studded cast including Adam Driver, Giancarlo Esposito, Aubrey Plaza, Shia LaBeouf, and Dustin Hoffman, the film promises a visually stunning and thought-provoking experience.
Coppola financed the project himself with a $120 million personal budget, showcasing his dedication to the film. After decades of preparation, Megalopolis is now screening in cinemas, offering moviegoers a cinematic journey like no other.
