"For all its inconveniences, Laing was satisfied with life in the high-rise." So beings the trailer for High-Rise, StudioCanal's film based on a novel about life in a luxurious apartment building that becomes a microcosm for society at large.

Hiddleston stars as Dr. Robert Laing, a new tenant who moves in "ready to move forward and explore life." He soon becomes enmeshed in a culture of parties and power struggles (both literal and figurative). Sienna Miller, Luke Evans and Elizabeth Moss costar as fellow tenants, with Jeremy Irons playing Anthony Royal, the building's enigmatic owner. The film is based on J.G. Ballard's 1975 novel of the same name.
High-Rise hits U.K. theaters on March 18th and the U.S. on April 28th.
