We haven't seen Kate Winslet on the big screen since Divergent at the beginning of 2015, but she is set to return with the highly anticipated A Little Chaos.

A Little Chaos

A Little Chaos sees Winslet take on the central role of Sabine De Barra as she reunites with Alan Rickman - however, it will be the first time that she has worked with Rickman as a director.

The movie sees Rickman return to the director's chair for what will only be his second feature film - surprisingly, it was back in 1998 that he made his debut with The Winter Guest.

A Little Chaos was met well on the festival circuit last year - playing at Toronto and London - and it looks set to be a rather lavish period drama. The brand new trailer for the film has arrived and we have it for you to take a look at:

As well as being in the director's chair, Rickman will also take on the role of King Louis XIV, and he and Winslet are joined on the cast list by Jennifer Ehle, Stanley Tucci, Matthias Schoenaerts, and Helen McCrory.

Madame Sabine De Barra (Winslet) is an unlikely candidate for landscape architect of the still-to-be-completed Palace of Versailles. She has little time for the classical, ordered designs of the man who hires her, the famous architect Le Nôtre (Schoenaerts).

However, as she works on her creation, she finds herself drawn to the enigmatic Le Nôtre and forced to negotiate the perilous rivalries and intricate etiquette of the court of King Louis XIV (Rickman).But Sabine is made of strong stuff; her honesty and compassion help her to overcome both the challenges of her newfound popularity, and an unspeakable tragedy from her past, to win the favour of the Sun King and the heart of Le Nôtre.

There are a handful of must seen period dramas set to hit the big screen in 2015, and A Little Chaos is one that is not to be missed.

A Little Chaos is released 17th April.
