A new trailer for David O. Russell‘s AMERICAN HUSTLE has dropped, and there’s a ton of new footage. I still can’t get over how much this is reminding me of a Scorsese film. If you would have never told me that Russell helmed this, I would have automatically just said it was a new one from Scorsese. Many of you can see why as I heard the same comparison when the first trailer came out at the beginning of August.
“Your father is a sick son of a bitch. Don’t repeat that. But yes.”
Synopsis:
A fictional film set in the alluring world of one of the most stunning scandals to rock our nation, American Hustle tells the story of brilliant con man Irving Rosenfeld (Christian Bale), who along with his equally cunning and seductive British partner Sydney Prosser (Amy Adams) is forced to work for a wild FBI agent Richie DiMaso (Bradley Cooper). DiMaso pushes them into a world of Jersey powerbrokers and mafia that’s as dangerous as it is enchanting. Jeremy Renner is Carmine Polito, the passionate, volatile, New Jersey political operator caught between the con-artists and Feds. Irving’s unpredictable wife Rosalyn (Jennifer Lawrence) could be the one to pull the thread that brings the entire world crashing down. Like David O. Russell’s previous films, American Hustle defies genre, hinging on raw emotion, and life and death stakes.
In case you didn’t catch it, Louis C.K. was in there for like two seconds (around 1:58). This trailer highlights more of the relationship between the characters that Adams and Bale play with a little Renner on the side. Gotta love Jennifer Lawrence.
AMERICAN HUSTLE opens on December 13, 2013.
