A new poster and featurette hit for Adam McKay’s The Big Short

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

Adam McKay's (STEP BROTHERS, ANCHROMAN) latest film, THE BIG SHORT, follows four outsiders in the world of high-finance who predicted the credit and housing bubble collapse of the mid-2000s and decided to take on the big banks for their greed and lack of foresight. Based on the true story and best-selling book by Michael Lewis, the flick stars Christian Bale, Steve Carell, Ryan Gosling and Brad Pitt and now you can watch some behind-the-scenes action of how it went down!

McKay seems to have a good handle on the material here, although it's late December release date makes me wonder if the movie will be seen by many come its release. Then again, I suppose there aren't a lot of folks who will be on the fence regarding seeing STAR WARS or THE BIG SHORT. With McKay's recent work that ISN'T comedy with Marvel's ANT-MAN script and now this, I'm curious to see where the future of his filmography will take him. THE BIG SHORT certainly doesn't seem like a bad start!

THE BIG SHORT will hit theaters on December 23, 2015.
