All is Lost trailer: Robert Redford gets lost at sea (Exclusive)

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water.

We’ve got the new trailer for ‘All is Lost’, and it’s made us a bit seasick.

The film stars Robert Redford as an unnamed sailor making a solo voyage in the Indian Ocean. He wakes to find his 39-foot yacht taking on water after a collision with a shipping container.

With the sun unrelenting, a storm incoming, sharks circling and his meager supplies dwindling, the ever-resourceful sailor soon finds himself staring his mortality in the face.

Amazingly, Redford is the only actor in the whole film, and the scenario gives the Hollywood legend a chance to remind us of his considerable acting chops after years spent mainly running the Sundance Film festival.

Written and directed by Academy Award nominee J.C. Chandor (‘Margin Call’), 'All is Lost' is certain to be an awards contendor next year after strong reviews from Cannes.

It’s released in the UK on 29 November 2013.
