The advance titled The Paper | Official Trailer | Peacock Original begins by transmitting the frantic pulse of a newsroom in the midst of a deadline. The camera swiftly moves between cluttered desks, ringing phones, and discussions about headlines, while introducing the protagonist Henry Hackett (Michael Keaton), an editor passionate about breaking news. From the very first seconds, it becomes clear that the tension revolves around an exclusive crime story that could send innocent people to prison, placing the reporters in an ethical dilemma: publish without confirmation or risk losing the scoop.

The trailer reinforces the dramedy tone by interspersing moments of humor with the constant pressure of the clock. Glenn Close appears as Alicia Clark, the ambitious deputy editor who clashes with Henry over the costs and accuracy of the story, while Robert Duvall embodies the veteran editor trying to maintain calm and balance in the newsroom. Amidst shouts of 'we have five minutes to close!' witty lines are inserted that underscore the cleverness of the script and the chemistry among the cast.

As the promotional piece progresses, the music intensifies, and quick cuts multiply: impromptu meetings, crossed-out edits, and printing presses starting to turn. Marisa Tomei, as Henry’s pregnant wife, adds a personal subplot that highlights the sacrifice of family life in the name of news. The underlying message emphasizes the importance of rigorous journalism against the rush and pressures from advertisers, encapsulating the central conflict of the film.

The montage culminates in a display of printing lights, headlines being printed at full speed, and the classic voice-over promising 'one day, one newspaper, and a thousand decisions that will change lives.' Finally, the Peacock logo merges with the release date, inviting the audience to discover this vibrant look at the world of newspapers. The result is a trailer that highlights the dynamism, satire, and timeless relevance of The Paper, positioning it as a must-see for cinema and journalism lovers
