Olivia Colman shines in a delightfully grim Great Expectations trailer

A new trailer for Hulu's adaptation of Charles Dickens's Great Expectations has arrived.

Per FX, Great Expectations is the coming-of-age story of Pip (Fionn Whitehead), an orphan who "yearns for a greater life, until a twist of fate and a mysterious benefactor opens a dark world of possibilities. Under the great expectations placed upon him, Pip must weigh the true cost of this new world and if it will make him the man he wishes to be."

In the brief clip, which can be viewed above, Olivia Colman stands out in all-white and a yellow smile as Mrs. Havisham, a wealthy, jilted spinster who insists on wearing her wedding dress for the rest of her life. We also see Pip encounter Shalom Brune-Franklin's Estella, his love interest.

"If you really want to win Estella," Pip is warned, over a montage of violent clips and chaos. "You will need more than love."
