‘Gambit’ Trailer: Colin Firth and Cameron Diaz vs. Alan Rickman Without the Pants
Movie News By Scott Beggs on September 20, 2012 | 1 Comment
In the original Gambit, Michael Caine went up against the great Herbert Lom, but in the updated version, it’s Colin Firth attempting to pull one over on Alan Rickman. It’s a little bit like Ocean’s One, and instead of a dancer played by Shirley MacLaine, we get a Southern stereotype played by Cameron Diaz.
Fortunately, everyone drops their pants in the trailer.
The movie was written by The Coen Brothers and directed by Michael Hoffman (The Last Station, Soapdish), so it’s definitely got a pedigree. However there’s just something flat about this particular piece of marketing. Something sort of tired and silly without being funny. Check it out for yourself:
Gambit will be out in the UK in November, and in US theaters in 2013.
