First Look at The Iron Lady Online!

The supernaturally talented, and Oscar’s favorite frontrunner, Meryl Streep, is at it again (thank the cinematic gods), this time taking on the role of steely Margaret Thatcher in The Iron Lady.  It’s Streep and it’s a biopic so consider the key nuances—mannerisms, accent—in the bag.

My only concern is director Phyllida Lloyd at the helm. Although a capable auteur, the last time Lloyd teamed with Streep, she managed to crush all my fantasies of curling up next to Pierce Bronson when she allowed sexy 007 to croon (badly) in Mamma Mia! Not even a pokerfaced Meryl could have saved that particularly horrific reveal, although damn if the woman didn’t nearly pull it off.

Get a sneak peek of the teaser trailer on The Guardian and let me know what you think!
