The follow-up to Ben Affleck‘s Gone Baby Gone is hitting theaters this year and we have the trailer. His directorial debut was one of my favorites of the last decade and this looks to be great, although the trailer may reveal too much.
The stellar cast includes Ben Affleck, Rebecca Hall, Jon Hamm, Jeremy Renner, Blake Lively, Pete Postlethwaite and Chris Cooper. It was also rumored Lively’s performance was so great in this that it landed her The Green Lantern role. The trailer will also be attached to Inception this week, along with Due Date. Check it out below via Apple.
Plot: Doug MacRay (Ben Affleck) is an unrepentant criminal, the de facto leader of a group of ruthless bank robbers who pride themselves in stealing what they want and getting out clean. With no real attachments, Doug never has to fear losing anyone close to him. But that all changed on the gang’s latest job, when they briefly took a hostage–bank manager, Claire Keesey (Rebecca Hall). Though they let her go unharmed, Claire is nervously aware that the robbers know her name… and where she lives. But she lets her guard down when she meets an unassuming and rather charming man named Doug…not realizing that he is the same man who only days earlier had terrorized her. The instant attraction between them gradually turns into a passionate romance that threatens to take them both down a dangerous, and potentially deadly, path.
The Town hits theaters September 17th via Warner Bros.
