The Double has debuted a short teaser trailer, Digital Spy said.

Jesse Eisenberg stars as two men in Richard Ayoade's upcoming comedy thriller (via Total Film).

The film centres around Simon James (Eisenberg), whose ordinary life is turned upside down by the arrival of a doppelgänger.

The double goes after his job, his girlfriend (Mia Wasikowska) and everything else he owns.

Jake Gyllenhaal will also be seen next year in Enemy. Based on Jose Saramago's novel - also titled The Double - it sees a school teacher discover an actor who is his exact duplicate.

The Double will open on April 4, 2014 in the UK. A US release date is yet to be announced.
