STUDIOCANAL are delighted to announce that the Coen Brothers’ latest triumph Inside Llewyn Davis will be available on EST from 19th May, on DVD, Blu-Ray and VOD from 26th May 2014 and available to pre-order now.

Starring a host of exceptional international talent including: Oscar Isaac (Drive, The Bourne Legacy), Carey Mulligan (The Great Gatsby, Shame), Justin Timberlake (Runner Runner, The Social Network), Adam Driver (Frances Ha, Girls), Garrett Hedlund (On The Road, Tron) and John Goodman (The Monuments Men, Argo). Inside Llewyn Davis is directed by the Academy Award® winning Brothers, Ethan and Joel Coen (True Grit, No Country for Old Men.)

INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS follows a week in the life of a young musician, guitar in tow, huddled against the unforgiving New York winter, as he attempts to navigate the Greenwich Village scene of 1961.

Llewyn Davis (Oscar Isaac) is struggling to make it, against seemingly insurmountable odds – some of them his own making. Living at the mercy of both friends (Justin Timberlake; Carey Mulligan) and strangers, he drifts along, penniless, taking any work he can get as his dream of becoming a successful singer seems to be slipping away.

Determined not to give up, he embarks on a mission to audition for music mogul Bud Grossman, his last hope to make his dreams of becoming a successful musician a reality.

Brimming with music performed by Oscar Isaac, Justin Timberlake and Carey Mulligan (as Llewyns’ married Village friends), as well as Marcus Mumford and Punch Brothers, Inside Llewyn Davis, in the tradition of O Brother, Where Art Thou?, is infused with the transportive sound of another time and place. An epic on an intimate scale, it represents the Coen Brothers fourth collaboration with Oscar® and Grammy® Award-winning music producer T Bone Burnett.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
