An array of people in varying futuristic and historical attire appear in a collage at the centre of the poster, surrounded by snippets of various environments. On the middle left is a countryside mansion beneath a starry sky. On the middle right is an old-fashioned ship with white sails at sea beneath a cloudy sky. On the bottom left, two small figures stare out at a futuristic city-scape. On the bottom right, a heartbeat monitor is overlaid on top of a dark and mysterious building with green domes. The actors featured most prominently in the array of people are Tom Hanks, who appears in profile looking towards camera with a beard and symbols tattooed over his face, and Halle Berry, who wears a modern coat and scarf and stares worriedly past the camera. Also in the array are Hugh Grant in a suit and tie, Susan Sarandon in formal robes with facial markings similar to those seen on Tom Hanks, Jim Sturgess in a top hat with a mustache, Jim Broadbent in overalls grinning into a phone, Ben Whishaw in plain attire contemplatively playing a piano, and Bae Doona sitting on the ground in a plain white jumpsuit which leaves her arms and legs bare. At the bottom of the poster is the film's title, "Cloud Atlas," and the tagline, "Everything is connected." At the top of the poster is a list of actors in the movie: "Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Jim Broadbent, Jim Sturgess, Doona Bae, Ben Whishaw, James D'Arcy, Zhou Xun, Keith David, David Gyasi, with Susan Sarandon, and Hugh Grant."
