Two new posters for The Hummingbird Project

Two new posters for The Hummingbird Project surface, announcing the release of the movie in Australia.

Jesse Eisenberg and an almost unrecognizable Alexander Skarsgård play cousins Vincent and Anton Zalesky in acclaimed director Kim Nguyen's The Hummingbird Project.

Cousins from New York, Vincent (Jesse Eisenberg) and Anton (Alexander Skarsgård) are players in the high-stakes game of High-Frequency Trading, where winning is measured in milliseconds. Their dream? To build a straight fiber-optic cable line between Kansas and New Jersey, making them millions. But nothing is straightforward for this flawed pair.

Constantly breathing down their necks is their former boss Eva Torres (Salma Hayek), a powerful, intoxicating and manipulative trader who will stop at nothing to come between them and beat them at their own game.

Directed by Kim Nguyen, The Hummingbird Project stars Jesse Eisenberg, Alexander Skarsgård and Salma Hayek.

The Hummingbird Project had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 8, 2018, and was the opening gala at the Vancouver International Film Festival later that month.

Recently The Hummingbird Project won at Canadian Screen Awards the Award for Achievement in Overall Sound (Pierre Mertens, Thomas Gauder, Alexis Oscari).

Prorom released The Hummingbird Project in Hungary on April 4.
