Adam McKay has just dropped the trailer for his follow-up to the award-winning film, THE BIG SHORT. That trailer is for a film called VICE, starring Christian Bale. It's a biopic of polarizing politician and amateur face shooter, Dick Cheney. Cheney was the Vice President under George W. Bush for eight years. The official logline for the film is:
"[an] epic story about how a bureaucratic Washington insider quietly became the most powerful man in the world as Vice President ..., reshaping the country and the globe in ways that we still feel today.”
As you can see from the photo above, Bale has gone through one of those impressive actor transformations he loves to do. How does the actual film look though? Let's check out the trailer:
Well... That's likely going to piss some people off.
What do you guys think? Into it? Hate it? Wish Mckay had adapted that Joe Biden detective novel instead? Let us know!
VICE, which also stars Sam Rockwell (GALAXY QUEST), Steve Carrell (THE OFFICE), Jesse Plemons (BREAKING BAD), and Amy Adams (THE FIGHTER), is scheduled to be released December 25th.
