‘The Walk’ Teaser: Joseph Gordon-Levitt Stands Dangerously on Top of the Twin Towers

Sony Pictures Entertainment released a new teaser trailer for The Walk today, and it is not for the faint of heart. In the clip, Joseph Gordon-Levitt stands precariously on top of one of the Twin Towers at the World Trade Center, balancing on the edge.

The film tells the true story of French high-wire artist Philippe Petit‘s walk across the Twin Towers in 1974. Watch Gordon-Levitt as Petit, below. Warning to those with a fear of heights — it will make your heart race. The film hits theaters on Oct. 2, 2015.
