Those all-girls boarding schools in the South don’t look too fun, huh? At least the costumes are gorgeous, swoon! The first official trailer has arrived for Sofia Coppola’s remake of The Beguiled — based on the novel A Painted Devil by Thomas P. Cullinan and the 1971 film adaption — with Colin Farrell replacing Clint Eastwood in the leading role as a wounded Union soldier in the Civil War South. He’s discovered by a student and is nursed back to health by the school’s numerous lovely women — which include Elle Fanning as a pupil, Nicole Kidman as a headmistress, and Kirsten Dunst as a teacher — and slowly becomes the object of intense infatuation between all of them … until it all goes terribly wrong. You can see when it’s released on June 23, and watch the original teaser below.
