Newsroom Season 2 Shows Off a ‘Desert’ Trailer

If you’re expecting to see clips from season two of HBO’s The Newsroom, you’ll be seriously disappointed with this new trailer. Instead of footage from season two, this is an artsy piece set in the desert without dialogue but with the cast giving clues to relationships. Confused? Don’t be. You can expect to see more actual clips as we approach the return of the critically acclaimed series on July 14, 2013.
 
The Plot:
 
From the mind of Aaron Sorkin, creator of The West Wing and screenwriter of The Social Network and Moneyball, comes The Newsroom,  a behind-the-scenes look at the people who make a nightly cable-news program. Focusing on a network anchor (played by Jeff Daniels), his new executive producer (Emily Mortimer), the newsroom staff (John Gallagher, Jr., Alison Pill, Thomas Sadoski, Olivia Munn, Dev Patel) and their boss (Sam Waterston), the series tracks their quixotic mission to do the news well in the face of corporate and commercial obstacles-not to mention their own personal entanglements.

And in case you’re wondering, the song in the trailer is “Can’t Pretend” by Tom Odell.
