The new trailer also reveals the films funnier side.
If nobody sees it, it didnt happen, Whitey Bulger tells his six-year old son in the new trailer for Scott Coopers crime drama, Black Mass. Bulger is played by Johnny Depp, who is nearly unrecognizable, as he takes on the infamous gangsters male-pattern baldness, added girth, and dead-eyed stare.
While Bulger wouldnt get hired to write any parenting books, the Irish mob boss was hired by the F.B.I. to ironically help fight crime. In the stranger-than-fiction story, Bulgers childhood best friend, John Connolly (Joel Edgerton) grew up to be an F.B.I. agent, who brought Bulger into the feds fold as an informant to work against their common enemy, the Italian mob. Their unholy alliance is documented in the new Warner Bros. Pictures film, set in 1970s South Boston, which stars Depp and Edgerton, alongside Kevin Bacon, Dakota Johnson, Jesse Plemons, Sienna Miller, Adam Scott, and, as reported, Benedict Cumberbatch, playing Bulgers brother.
The first trailer for Black Mass was dark, focusing on Bulgers ruthless enthusiasm for violence, but this preview shows the films, well, not exactly softer side, but at least a funnier one. It breaks up the relentless gore with moments of levity, like Bulgers poor parenting or when an elderly neighbor welcomes him back to the neighborhood and congratulates him on his release from Alcatraz ten years ago.
Black Mass hits theaters on September 18, Bulgers parenting book is expected in stores never.
