A new trailer for David Cronenberg's Cosmopolis has gone online.  The plot centers on wealthy businessman (Robert Pattinson) who loses his fortune in a single day, and this trailer does a good job of conveying that basic plotline.  But as we've seen from previous trailers, the flick looks far stranger and unwieldy than such a simple premise.  This new trailer feels like it's trying to smooth out the edges of an insane-looking flick.Hit the jump to check out the trailer.  The film also stars Juliette Binoche, Sarah Gadon, Mathieu Amalric, Jay Baruchel, Kevin Durand, K’Naan, and Emily Hampshire.  Cosmopolis opens in limited release August 17th.Click over to Apple to see the trailer in HD.[EMBED_YT]https://www.youtube.com/embed/RwehC_EuN-k[/EMBED_YT]Here's the official synopsis for Cosmpolis:

Unfolding in a single cataclysmic day, the story follows Eric Packer (Robert Pattinson)--a 28-year old financial whiz kid and billionaire asset manager--as he heads out in his tricked-out stretch limo to get a haircut from his father's old barber, while remotely wagering his company's massive fortune on a bet against the Chinese Yuan. Packer's luxe trip across the city quickly becomes dizzyingly hellish as he encounters explosive city riots, aparade of provocative visitors, and is thrust into a myriad of intimate encounters. Having started the day with everything, believing he is the future, Packer's perfectly ordered, doubt-free world is about to implode.
