The much awaited The Gambler Movie Trailer will be featuring Mark Wahlberg in a more serious role, as opposed to his recent comedic roles. The movie is set to be released by December 19, 2014, extending until the next year.
The plot may seem like the usual gambling movie, but rumors that the movie will not take the same style as other movies of the same genre has been exciting fans lately. According to Comingsoon: "Jim Bennett (Academy Award®-nominee Mark Wahlberg) is a risk taker. Both an English professor and a high-stakes gambler, Bennett bets it all when he borrows from a gangster (Michael Kenneth Williams) and offers his own life as collateral. Always one step ahead, Bennett pits his creditor against the operator of a gambling ring (Alvin Ing) and leaves his dysfunctional relationship with his wealthy mother (Academy Award®-winner Jessica Lange) in his wake. He plays both sides, immersing himself in an illicit, underground world while garnering the attention of Frank (John Goodman), a loan shark with a paternal interest in Bennett's future. As his relationship with a student (Brie Larson) deepens, Bennett must take the ultimate risk for a second chance..."
The Gambler Movie Trailer does not only promise to be a different film altogether, but even the lead actor, Mark Wahlberg, is set to be seen in a different way, rumors say. The "The Other Guys" star has reportedly been practicing a different method in acting, which is why viewers will see the difference of his character in this movie from the characters that he has portrayed in his previous films.
The movie is under Paramount Pictures and features Mark Wahlberg, John Goodman, Brie Larson, Michael Kenneth Williams, and Jessica Lange. Directed by Rupert Wyatt, and written by William Monahan.
