Submarine actress Gemma Chan is a former model and once competed on “Project Catwalk.” That’s the British version of “Project Runway” for all you who don’t keep up on your model-related reality shows. She currently appears on the TV series “Secret Diary of a Call Girl” as the character Charlotte.

‘Submarine’ Trailer Gives A Heaping Portion Of British Indie

It’s easy to dismiss the trailer for Submarine as Britain‘s pass at quirky-for-the-sake-of-quirky indie cinema (I did the first time I watched the trailer), but the trailer seems to have all the hallmarks of indie cinema with none of the derivation. It reads like an About a Boy sequel, with all the sentiment coming from the likes of a Nick Hornby, rather than a Zach Braff or Diablo Cody.

The Shins won’t change your life in Submarine, and Michael Cera is nowhere to be found (possibly off somewhere making pop-pop). So peep Submarine and watch a weird British kid pursue love as awkwardly as British people do everything else.

No Hyperbole! Okay, well, maybe a little. Writer/Director Richard Ayoade, best know as Moss from the British Channel 4 sitcom “The IT Crowd,” has put together a first feature that looks pretty fantastic. If the trailer is any indication, Submarine should have film lovers, cinema majors, and quirky, multi-colored font enthusiasts jumping for joy. The film, about a 15 year old boy coming of age amidst first love and divorced parents, features original music by Alex Turner of the Arctic Monkeys, and is executive produced by Ben Stiller.
