It would take quite a lot to measure up to KISS KISS BANG BANG, but judging by this first trailer for THE NICE GUYS, Shane Black's "spiritual sequel" to KISS KISS BANG BANG, he may very well have done it. Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe star as struggling private-eye Holland March and hired enforcer Jackson Healy respectively, " two working-class dudes who are forced to work together to solve the case of a missing girl and death of a porn star – an investigation that uncovers a surprising conspiracy with major ramifications for those in the highest positions of power."

That. Looks. Amazing. I laughed more at that trailer than I have for any straight comedy trailer I've seen this past year. If the movie ends up being even half as funny as that trailer, we'll be in for a treat. Shane Black spoke to People Magazine recently and revealed a few details of what we can expect from THE NICE GUYS.
It is an R-rated film and it's a caper, it's a little fast, a little funny and a little rough in places, kind of coarse. These guys are working-class dudes, they're not really sophisticated private detectives, so it's a chance to do the kind of thriller I don't see too much of anymore.
THE NICE GUYS will hit theaters in May 20, 2016.
