The new poster for Madonna's romantic drama W.E. has been released.

The two-tiered love story centres on the affair between King Edward VIII and American socialite Wallis Simpson, and a modern-day romance between a married woman and a Russian security guard.

Andrea Riseborough, James D'Arcy, Abbie Cornish, Oscar Isaac, Katie McGrath, Richard Coyle and Laurence Fox star in W.E., which divided critics when it debuted at the Venice Film Festival earlier this year.

Madonna's new ballad 'Masterpiece', produced by her Ray of Light collaborator William Orbit, will feature on the movie's soundtrack.

W.E. opens in UK cinemas on January 20, 2012.
