The Current War: Director's Cut

In this trailer for The Current War, we are introduced to the famous Thomas Albert Edison (Benedict Cumberbatch) whose vision and inventions look to power the world into the future. We are then introduced to his rivals in George Westinghouse (Michael Shannon) and Nikola Tesla (Nicholas Hoult), who offer their own takes on how to provide electrical power to the masses. Their rivalry soon turns to a contest between the three brightest minds in America. In spite of his rivals' efforts, Edison is clearly ahead of the game, forcing the other two to resort to underhanded means to level the playing field and come out on top. Things begin to get nasty as each party employs dirty tactics in an effort to one up each other.
