    We keep getting new glimpses into the David Cronenberg film “Cosmopolis,” starring Robert Pattinson. Previously we’ve seen an NSFW trailer, two “green band” trailers, and a clip from a diner conversation. While these images are safe for work, there’s definitely still some eye candy in here for everyone.

    Below are 11 new images from the film, featuring not just Robert Pattinson, but also Jay Baruchel, Samantha Morton, Paul Giamatti and Kevin Durand. You can also check out the latest trailer and the official synopsis after the pics. “Cosmopolis” is set to premiere at the Cannes Film Festival, May 16th – 25th, 2012.

    Official Synopsis: New York City, not-too-distant-future: Eric Packer, a 28 year-old finance golden boy dreaming of living in a civilization ahead of this one, watches a dark shadow cast over the firmament of the Wall Street galaxy, of which he is the uncontested king. As he is chauffeured across midtown Manhattan to get a haircut at his father’s old barber, his anxious eyes are glued to the yuan’s exchange rate: it is mounting against all expectations, destroying Eric’s bet against it. Eric Packer is losing his empire with every tick of the clock. Meanwhile, an eruption of wild activity unfolds in the city’s streets. Petrified as the threats of the real world infringe upon his cloud of virtual convictions, his paranoia intensifies during the course of his 24-hour cross-town odyssey.
    .
    Packer starts to piece together clues that lead him to a most terrifying secret: his imminent assassination.
    Cronenberg revisits subjects that fascinate him: how the organic and the psychological are inextricably intertwined, society’s anxieties and phobias, and letting repressed impulses and paranoia run wild. COSMOPOLIS is a culmination of his masterpieces that addresses the alarming global financial crisis of today’s world.
    .
    It is a hauntingly prophetic fable that turns the future into history and suggests that the archaic might be our eerie future.ROBERT PATTINSON.
