A ton of new footage has been added, with a bit more clarity on the film’s plot and maybe another subtle hint that Benedict Cumberbatch may indeed be Kahn. It could very well just be more misdirection from the studio, but it will implant those suspicions into the minds of eager fans.

“The Words” (2012) Debut Trailer

Considering the story behind the movie, I’d say this is a poor trailer since the song used makes it feel like a romance drama rather than a drama about a writer who gets a big break of a work he plagiarized and winds up being confronted by the original writer.

Still, there is good word of mouth about this movie from the Sundance Film Festival and it does have a solid cast which includes Bradley Cooper, Zoe Saldana, Jeremy Irons, Olivia Wilde, Dennis Quaid, along with Ben Barnes and J.K. Simmons.

The Words makes it way to theaters September 21st.
