Shrewd Story With Powerful Message “Trainspotting 2” Trailer

Directed by Danny Boyle about 20 years ago, Trainspotting was a cult sensation that launched Ewan McGregor’s career and Boyle’s. Boyle won an Oscar for directing Slumdog Millionaire.

Now, Boyle and McGregor have teamed up again with the sequel to Trainspotting. What you get to see is first there was an opportunity……then there was a betrayal. Twenty years have passed. Much has changed, but just as much remains the same. One thing, there are social media and devices, but there are still enemies.

The movie is available on Amazon and other streaming platforms.

Mark Renton, played by McGregor, returns to the only place he can ever call home. They are waiting for him. If you have seen the first movie, you know they are Spud, played by Ewen Bremner, Sick Boy, played by Jonny Lee Miller, and Begbie, played by Robert Carlyle.

Other old friends are waiting too with emotions like sorrow, loss, joy, vengeance, hatred, friendship, love, longing, fear, regret, diamorphine (Heroin), self-destruction and mortal danger. They are all lined up to welcome him, ready to join the dance.
