Julie Delpy, Ethan Hawke in “Before Midnight” Sundance film

Sony Pictures Classics has released the first trailer for director Richard Linklater’s sequel Before Midnight, Deadline said.

The third installment in the Richard Linklater-Julie Delpy-Ethan Hawke trilogy generated serious heat at Sundance this year. Seven buyers circled Before Midnight after its well-received premiere there until Sony Pictures Classics won out by sealing of the biggest deals of the festival. This one follows Jesse and Celine, now in Greece, nine years after the last pic (2004′s Before Sunset). It opens in NY and LA on May 24.
