Paramount Pictures has unveiled a new trailer for The Big Short film adaptation. The video embedded above features scenes with Brad Pitt as Ben Hockett, Christian Bale as Michael Burry, and Ryan Gosling as Greg Lippmann.
Here’s more from The Hollywood Reporter: “Based on Michael Lewis’ best seller, The Big Short chronicles the men who made millions from a global economic meltdown and those who tried to stop it. When four outsiders saw what the big banks, media and government refused to acknowledge, they had an idea: The Big Short. Their bold investment led them into the dark underbelly of modern banking where they must question everyone and everything.”
According to Indiewire, Adam McKay served as the director for this project. McKay collaborated with Charles Randolph to adapt Lewis’ book for the script. A wide theatrical release date has been set for Dec. 23. (via Esquire)
