Trailer for GAMBIT Starring Colin Firth and Cameron Diaz
Here is the first full trailer for Gambit, a remake of the 1966 film starring Michael Caine as a cat burglar who recruits a showgirl played by Shirley MacLaine to help him heist a priceless antiquity. This update was written by Joel and Ethan Coen (The Ladykillers, True Grit) and stars Colin Firth as a British art curator who enlists a Texas Rodeo Queen (Cameron Diaz) to help him con England’s richest man and avid art collector, Lionel Shabandar (Alan Rickman).
It’s nice to see Rickman in a comedic role after so many Potter movies; by the looks of things he just might steal the show in this one. The movie also stars Stanley Tucci and Cloris Leachman. Gambit will be released on November 21st in the UK and in early 2013 in North America.

Trailer: The King’s Speech
Tom Hooper’s film The King’s Speech won top prize at the Toronto Film Festival, and was met with praise at Telluride. We have the trailer for you and it’s great. Colin Firth as King George VI is obviously a safe bet (for now) for an Oscar nomination, of course Geoffrey Rush stands a similar chance as well, and he’s always great isn’t he? The film looks great and should be one to watch out for. The King’s Speech opens in theaters on November 24.
The film is based on the true story of the Queen of England’s father and his remarkable friendship with maverick Australian speech therapist Lionel Logue. The King’s Speech stars Academy Award nominee Colin Firth as King George VI, who unexpectedly becomes King when his brother Edward abdicates the throne. Academy Award Winner Geoffrey Rush stars as Logue, the man who helps the King find a voice with which to lead the nation into war.
