Shakespeare will be haunting our screens for Christmas.

Written and directed by Joel Coen, the film stars a host of stage veterans including Tony winner Denzel Washington (Fences) as Lord Macbeth, Tony winner Frances McDormand (Good People) as Lady Macbeth, Tony winner Bertie Carvel (Ink) as Banquo, and Tony nominee Corey Hawkins (Six Degrees of Separation) as Macduff.
