When the Gods wish to punish us they answer our prayers, and Oscar Wilde knew what he was talking about. Will Smith is about to get some sort of divine intervention when a tragic event strikes at the heart of his world.

David Frankl’s new film, Collateral Beauty, has Smith’s grieving businessman writing letters to Love, Time and Death as if they were real people, in order that he can find some cosmic answers.

The first trailer showed exactly what happens – that is that Smith’s letter get answered…

Here’s a full synopsis, and the new poster for the film is below.

When a successful New York advertising executive (Will Smith) experiences a deep personal tragedy and retreats from life entirely, his colleagues devise a drastic plan to force him to confront his grief in a surprising and profoundly human way.

Will Smith has the biggest face on the poster, meaning that he leads the film which also includes Edward Norton, Keira Knightley with Kate Winslet, Helen Mirren, Michael Peña and Naomie Harris. Though they have small faces.
