Did you ever want to see Bradley Cooper swallow a pill and become even sexier than he already is? Neil Burger (The Illusionist) has “unlocked that potential” and many more in his latest film, Limitless. Previously titled The Dark Fields, this drama/thriller also stars Robert De Niro, Abbie Cornish, and Anna Friel. Leslie Dixon (Mrs. Doubtfire, upcoming Tower Heist) adapted Alan Glynn‘s novel. The first trailer below makes it seem a little hokey, especially with the lets-put-this-in-because-its-popular-now inclusion of Kanye West’s Power. Still, I won’t mind seeing Cooper and De Niro go head-to-head. Check out the trailer and poster below via Apple.
Synopsis: Bradley Cooper and Robert De Niro star in Limitless, a paranoia-fueled action thriller about an unpublished writer whose life is transformed by a top-secret smart drug that allows him to use 100% of his brain and become a perfect version of himself. His enhanced abilities soon attract shadowy forces that threaten his new life in this darkly comic and provocative film.
Limitless hits theaters March 18th, 2011.
