The film stars Michael Keaton as a washed-up superhero actor who tries to get back in the game by mounting a Broadway play. Which is convenient, because Michael Keaton is most famous for playing Batman. Emma Stone, Zach Galifianakis and Edward Norton also co-star. It’s due in theaters October 17, just in time for Oscar season. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/2871473/birdman-trailer/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/2871473/birdman-trailer/"},"headline":"Watch Michael Keaton and Emma Stone in the Crazy-Cool Birdman Trailer","datePublished":"2014-06-13T17:58:04.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T08:24:40.981Z","description":"It looks sick","url":"https://time.com/2871473/birdman-trailer/","keywords":["movies","Michael Keaton","Batman","Emma Stone","Superhero","birdman"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Charlotte Alter","jobTitle":"Senior Correspondent","url":"https://time.com/author/charlotte-alter/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/movies/","name":"movies"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/2871473/birdman-trailer/","name":"Watch Michael Keaton and Emma Stone in the Crazy-Cool Birdman Trailer"}}]}] ```
