The first trailer for the political drama 'The Ides of March' featuring the star and director, Oscar winner George Clooney, as an American presidential candidate and Oscar nominee Ryan Gosling (Blue Valentine) as an idealistic campaign manager, was released online July 27.

The footage includes behind-the-scene images of the campaign trail and builds up to meetings with managers of rival candidates trying to lure the young staffer away.

As Gosling's character gets a crash course in dirty politics, his ethical dilemma comes to the surface when he considers being the up-and-coming press secretary.

Additional cast members include Paul Giamatti (The Hangover Part II), Philip Seymour Hoffman (Doubt), Marisa Tomei (The Wrestler) and Evan Rachel Wood (Across the Universe).

Clooney also co-wrote the screenplay with frequent collaborator (and the film's producer) Grant Heslov, adapting the story from the successful stage play Farragut North (the name of a Washington DC metro station), which featured Chris Pine (Star Trek) and Chris Noth (Sex and the City).

The film is set to premiere on August 31 as the opening film of the 68th Venice International Film Festival and will be a featured presentation at the Toronto International Film Festival in September.

The Ides of March opens on October 7 in the United States, with other markets to follow.
