The first trailer for A Gentleman in Moscow has arrived.

In the brief clip, which can be viewed above, Count Alexander Ilyich Rostov (Ewan McGregor) is condemned to house arrest in an attic room in the Hotel Metropool after the Russian Revolution. Alexander meets a little girl named Nina Kulikova (Alexa Goodall) who also resides at the hotel and knows its ins and outs – and even has a secret key to every door. Together the two appear to plot an escape – although the stakes are dire.

The cast includes Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Leah Harvey, Johnny Harris, Paul Ready, John Hefferman, Lyes Salem, Fehinti Balogun, Bjorn Hlynur Haraldsson, Dee Ahluwalia, and Anatasia Hille. Sam Miller (I May Destroy You) is set to direct each episode with each teleplay written by Ben Vanstone (All Creatures Get Small, The English Game).
