Based on the cult 1975 sci-fi novel, the final trailer for High-Rise has just been released.

Directed by Ben Wheatley (Kill List, Sightseers, A Field In England), it tells the story of a new tenant (Tom Hiddleston) who moves into a high-rise apartment block, with the richer people at the top and the poorer people down the bottom.

Finally fed up as being treated as second class citizens, the population in the lower floors begin a revolution against those above, with Hiddleston caught in the middle of their very violent class war.
