In this modern retelling of Shakespeare's timeless tragedy, Hamlet is brought to life in a gritty New York City landscape where corporate power and corruption reign supreme. As Ethan Hawke's titular character navigates his father's murder and his own quest for revenge, the boundaries between reality and technology blur, with surveillance cameras and video art montages serving as a backdrop for the ancient drama unfolding on stage. Against this urban backdrop, Kyle MacLachlan brings his signature intensity to the role of Claudius, CEO of the Denmark Corporation, while Bill Murray's iconic performance as Polonius is reimagined in a surprising and unsettling way.
