Universal and their marketing department seem more excited about the assembled cast for TOWER HEIST than I am (Tea Leoni gets her own poster? It’s like I tripped and fell into 1998), but at least they’re giving everyone besides Stiller and Murphy some face time on theater walls. Unless your name is Michael Peña, in which case the dog is apparently more valuable than you, buddy.
Anyway, here’s the slanted gang of thieves in the latest posters for Brett Ratner’s comedy, arriving November 4.
The full synopsis: After the workers at a luxury Central Park condominium discover the penthouse billionaire has stolen their retirement, they plot the ultimate revenge: a heist to reclaim what he took from them. Queens native Josh Kovacs (Stiller) has managed one of the most luxurious and well-secured residences in New York City for more than a decade. Under his watchful eye, nothing goes undetected. In the swankiest unit atop Josh’s building, Wall Street titan Arthur Shaw (Alan Alda) is under house arrest after being caught stealing two billion from his investors. The hardest hit among those he defrauded? The tower staffers whose pensions he was entrusted to manage. With only days before Arthur gets away with the perfect crime, Josh’s crew turns to petty crook Slide (Murphy) to plan the nearly impossible…to steal what they are sure is hidden in Arthur’s guarded condo. Though amateurs, these rookie thieves know the building better than anyone. Turns out they’ve been casing the place for years, they just didn’t know it.
