Trailer for Samuel L. Jackson's THE SAMARITAN

Here's an official trailer for the new Samuel L. Jackson noir thriller called The Samaritan. In the film Jackson plays a man named "Foley, a grifter trying to escape from his past having spent 20 years in prison. But he gets ensnared in the plans of a young protege and it becomes all too clear to Foley that some wrongs can never be made right." The movie was directed by David Weaver, and also stars Tom Wilkinson, Luke Kirby and Ruth Negga.

I enjoy watching Jackson in the movies he makes, and this looks like it could be a cool heist thriller. IFC Films will release the movie in a limited amount of theaters on May 16th, 2012. Check out the trailer below and tell us if it interests you or not!
