About a month before the premiere of the film on HBO, the cable network has released the first full trailer for the upcoming drama biopic My Dinner with Hervé starring Peter Dinklage and Jamie Dornan, which can be viewed in the player below!
An unlikely friendship evolves over one wild night in LA between a struggling journalist (Dornan) and actor Hervé Villechaize (Dinklage), resulting in life-changing consequences for both.

Written and directed by Sacha Gervasi (The Terminal, Hitchcock) from a story by he and Sean Macaulay, My Dinner With Hervé is based on Gervasi’s own experience interviewing Herve Villechaize in 1993, just days before the actor killed himself.
“He interviewed Hervé right before he killed himself,” Dinklage told The New York Times of the project back in 2012. “…After he killed himself, Sacha realized Hervé’s interview was a suicide note.”
My Dinner With Hervé also stars Oona Chaplin (Taboo, The Longest Ride), Mireille Enos (World War Z, The Catch), Andy Garcia (Ballers, Book Club) and Harriet Walter (Babel, Atonement).
Peter Dinklage can soon be seen reprising his role as Tyrion Lannister on the seventh season of HBO’s Game of Thrones before joining the superhero ensemble Avengers: Infinity War in a mystery role. Jamie Dornan, meanwhile, will return for the final Fifty Shades of Grey film, Fifty Shades Freed, in 2018. He’s also set to play Will Scarlet in Lionsgate’s upcoming Robin Hood. Andy García is about to begin production on the film Ana.
