Academy Award-winning director Oliver Stone (Platoon, Born on the Fourth of July) tackles the most important and fascinating true story of the 21st century: Edward Snowden’s whistle-blowing. Snowden, the politically-charged, pulse-pounding thriller starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Brick, The Dark Knight Rises) and Shailene Woodley (The Descendants, The Spectacular Now), reveals the incredible untold personal story of Edward Snowden, the polarizing figure who exposed shocking illegal surveillance activities by the NSA and became one of the most wanted men in the world. He is considered a hero by some, and a traitor by others. No matter which you believe, the epic story of why he did it, who he left behind, and how he pulled it off makes for one of the most compelling films of the year. Like many of Stone’s best films, Snowden has a deep cast, filled with great supporting performances from Melissa Leo, Zachary Quinto, Rhys Ifans, Tom Wilkinson, Timothy Olyphant, and previous Stone collaborator, Nicolas Cage.
