This is our first official photo from director Terry Gilliam's The Man Who Killed Don Quixote. After all that Gilliam has gone through in trying to make this film over the years, it's crazy that it actually got made. This first photo features Adam Driver (Star Wars: The Last Jedi) as Toby and Jonathan Pryce (Pirate of the Caribbean) in the role of Don Quixote.
The Man Who Killed Don Quixote tells the story of a deluded old man who is convinced he is Don Quixote, and who mistakes Toby, an advertising executive, for his trusty squire, Sancho Panza. The pair embark on a bizarre journey, jumping back and forth in time between the 21st and magical 17th century. Gradually, like the infamous knight himself, Toby becomes consumed by the illusory world and unable to determine his dreams from reality. The tale culminates in a phantasmagorical and emotional finale...

A new picture surfaces from Terry Gilliam's long, long mooted The Man Who Killed Don Quixote
While the smart money is on a Cannes premiere for Terry Gilliam's much-delayed The Man Who Killed Don Quixote, the truth is that nothing has yet been publicly announced and Gilliam and his team remain up to their elbows in post-production work. We also don't know who will be releasing the film in various territories, and for now, neither do its producers. They're in Berlin at the film market right now, shopping the rights around and looking for buyers. They won't have trouble - it's really a job of finding the best fit, best deals, best reach for the film. Out in Berlin is Andrea Corsini who has very handily tweeted this image from the film. It's the first actual promotional image to have been published.
