I ’m josh , of course of instruction , about the whole Tesla vs Edison thing . But Nikola Tesla has certainly make the legal age of the headlines this decade . Tesla has received much coverage in popular history that it seems we ’ve overcorrected in a lot of ways , raising Tesla to thelevel of sainthood , and pretending that Edisondidn’t do anything . Both were significant to the story of technological design at the spell of the 20th one C , to say nothing of other figures like George Westinghouse , who ’s also seen in the plastic film .
Directed by Alfonso Gomez‐Rejon ( Me and Earl and the Dying Girl ) , the movie stars Benedict Cumberbatch as Thomas Edison , Michael Shannon as George Westinghouse , Katherine Waterson as Westinghouse ’s wife , and Nicholas Hoult as Nikola Tesla .
The pic will premiere in Toronto this weekend and spread in wide release on November 24 , 2017 , the day after Thanksgiving . But you probably should n’t go see it with your teenaged first cousin who just pick up who Tesla was . Because you ’ll never shut him up .
