A toweringly ambitious, operatic visionary spectacle from filmmaking titan Francis Ford Coppola, Megalopolis imagines a mind-bending Shakespearean future in which time-bending architect Cesar (Adam Driver) strives to build a utopian future in New Rome.

Megalopolis is a Roman Epic fable set in an imagined Modern America. The City of New Rome must change, causing conflict between Cesar Catilina (Adam Driver), a genius artist who seeks to leap into a utopian, idealistic future, and his opposition, Mayor Franklyn Cicero (Giancarlo Esposito), who remains committed to a regressive status quo, perpetuating greed, special interests, and partisan warfare. Torn between them is socialite Julia Cicero (Nathalie Emmanuel), the mayor’s daughter, whose love for Cesar has divided her loyalties, forcing her to discover what she truly believes humanity deserves.

An epic, utterly singular cinematic experience of unparalleled, unchained scale and ambition, this long-brewing passion project of auteur Francis Ford Coppola – the director behind all-time greats including The Godfather and Apocalypse Now – assembles a similarly stacked ensemble cast, which includes Giancarlo Esposito, Aubrey Plaza, Laurence Fishburne and Dustin Hoffman.
