NSFW Official Trailer for Lars von Trier’s Nymphomaniac Released

Nymphomaniac header

What has eight chapters and copious amounts of unsimulated sex? Lars von Trier‘s Nymphomaniac, that’s what!

After some tantalizing teases that featured a collection of O-faced character posters and provocative clips, the absolutely NSFW official trailer  for von Trier’s new film debuted online today. Go for the sight of Charlotte Gainsbourg blowing up a car with a molotov cocktail, but stay for the glimpse of Uma Thurman asking “Would it be alright if I showed the children the whoring bed?” or how about Jamie Bell in some S&M action?

The Antichrist director’s new film focuses on the sexual exploits of Gainsbourg’s sex addict character Joe, and could possibly be released in two parts running up to five and a half hours in total. The ensemble features Shia LeBoeuf, Stacy Martin, Stellan Skarsgard, Christian Slater, Connie Nielsen, Udo Kier, Mia Goth and Willem Dafoe. Our friends in Denmark will surely be in the holiday spirit when the film is released there on Christmas day, and though Magnolia Pictures has picked up the film for US distribution they have yet to announce a stateside release date.

Check out the trailer below, and please remember it is most definitely NSFW!
