Amazon Studios has released the first clip from its upcoming biopic The Electrical Life of Louis Wain starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Claire Foy.

The highly anticipated film from director Will Sharpe aims to tell the true story of the eccentric British artist, who was best known for his surreal paintings of anthropomorphic cats with freakishly large eyes and ambiguous meanings behind them.

Cumberbatch plays Wain, whose life is changed forever when he meets his sisters' governess Emily Richardson (Foy). She would go on to become Wain's wife and served as the inspiration for much of his work and a driving force behind his art.
