Maestro's trailer has received an almost unanimously positive response from fans, who are more than excited about the upcoming film.

Fans envision Oscar nominations for Maestro ahead of release

While it is common for fans to put a film on a pedestal after it releases, it is quite rare to see such a great response with only the trailer being revealed. The beautifully shot, edited, and acted-out trailer seems to be perfect, as per fans.

Moreover, Bradley Cooper's previous film, A Star is Born, starring Lady Gaga opposite the veteran actor, also made a splash at the Academy Awards, bagging multiple nominations and winning some. Fans feel that this past record increases the possibility for Maestro to make its mark in the same manner.

The film will additionally star Matt Bomer, Maya Hawke, Sarah Silverman, Michael Urie, Gideon Glick, and Miriam Shor, among others.

Ahead of the Netflix release, Maestro is set to premiere at the 80th Venice International Film Festival, where it will compete for the Golden Lion on September 2, 2023.
