Joaquin Phoenix and Paul Thomas Anderson
Set in 1970s Los Angeles, the film follows Phoenix's drug-addled detective Larry "Doc" Sportello as he investigates an ex-girlfriend's disappearance.
Reese Witherspoon, Josh Brolin, Owen Wilson and Benicio Del Toro are also among the cast.
The film also reunites Anderson with his long-time director of photography Robert Elswit, who has worked on all the director's previous features except for The Master.

NYFF Director and Selection Committee Chair Kent Jones said in a statement: "Every new Paul Thomas Anderson movie is an event, an experience – when the lights come up, you feel like you've been somewhere, and come back with your mind altered.
"Inherent Vice is a journey through the past, bringing the texture of the early 70s SoCal counterculture back to full blown life. It's a wildly funny, deeply soulful, richly detailed, and altogether stunning movie."
It was announced earlier this week that David Fincher's Gone Girl will open this year's New York Film Festival on September 26.
The 52nd New York Film Festival runs from September 26 until October 12, 2014.
