It’s been quite some time since Johnny Depp had a worthwhile role, but that could change this fall with the arrival of Black Mass, a biopic surrounding the dangerous Irish, Boston-based mobster Whitey Bulger. Set for a fall release that seems primed to premiere at Toronto International Film Festival, we get an initial look exactly a month ago, but now another preview has arrived.

Marking Scott Cooper‘s follow-up to Out of the Furnace, a new trailer has now landed today, which shows off another conversation with Depp, this time to his son as we see his activities around the neighborhood. Also featuring the impressive cast of Joel Edgerton, Benedict Cumberbatch, Kevin Bacon, Dakota Johnson, Jesse Plemons, Corey Stoll, Rory Cochrane, Sienna Miller, and Adam Scott, check out the new trailer below.

In 1970s South Boston, FBI Agent John Connolly (Joel Edgerton) persuades Irish mobster James “Whitey” Bulger (Johnny Depp) to collaborate with the FBI and eliminate a common enemy: the Italian mob. The drama tells the true story of this unholy alliance, which spiraled out of control, allowing Whitey to evade law enforcement, consolidate power, and become one of the most ruthless and powerful gangsters in Boston history.
