The ensemble cast, featuring Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Jim Broadbent, Hugo Weaving, and Hugh Grant, plays multiple roles across different storylines and time periods. This unique casting choice emphasizes the thematic connections between characters and their reincarnations.
“Cloud Atlas” is noted for its intricate storytelling, visual spectacle, and ambitious scope.
