HIGH-RISE stars Hiddleston as Dr. Robert Laing, the newest resident of a luxurious apartment in a high-tech concrete skyscraper whose lofty location places him amongst the upper class. Laing quickly settles into high society life and meets the building’s eccentric tenants: Charlotte (Miller), his upstairs neighbor and bohemian single mother; Wilder (Evans), a charismatic documentarian who lives with his pregnant wife Helen (Moss); and Mr. Royal (Irons), the enigmatic architect who designed the building. Life seems like paradise to the solitude-seeking Laing. But as power outages become more frequent and building flaws emerge, particularly on the lower floors, the regimented social strata begins to crumble and the building becomes a battlefield in a literal class war. Starring: Tom Hiddleston (Kong: Skull Island, Thor Franchise, The Avengers), Academy Award-Winner Jeremy Irons (Assassin’s Creed, Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice), Golden Globe Nominee Sienna Miller (American Sniper, Foxcatcher), Luke Evans (Beauty and the Beast, Dracula Untold), and Golden Globe-Winner Elizabeth Moss (“Mad Men,” The One I Love). Based on J.G. Ballard's Seminal 1975 Sci-fi Novel, “High-Rise.”
