Almost flying past the radar, a new movie poster and trailer video has bee released for director Kenneth Lonergan’s movie Margaret that has finally been unveiled after a very long six year wait. The hold up was due in part to some financial issues and lawsuits on Lonergan’s behalf, but finally the flick has received the green light, and the golden touch of Martin Scorsese and editor Thelma Schoonmaker, who are both putting their final touches on the September 30th release.

Margaret features a star line up of leading lady Anna Paquin of True Blood fame, as well as Matt Damon, Mark Ruffalo, Allison Janney, Matthew Broderick, Kieran Culkin and Olivia Thirlby. Check out the trailer for yourself below with the full Margaret plot synopsis per IMDb.

“Margaret centers on a 17-year-old New York City high-school student who feels certain that she inadvertently played a role in a traffic accident that has claimed a woman’s life. In her attempts to set things right she meets with opposition at every step. Torn apart with frustration, she begins emotionally brutalizing her family, her friends, her teachers, and most of all, herself. She has been confronted quite unexpectedly with a basic truth: that her youthful ideals are on a collision course against the realities and compromises of the adult world.”
