Trailer For Action Comedy CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE With Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart
Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart star in an upcoming action comedy called Central Intelligence, and it looks like it could be funny as hell. The first trailer has been released for it, and I really enjoyed what I saw. The story follows a mild-mannered accountant (Hart) who used to be a high school sports star. He is lured into world of international espionage by a former bullied high school nerd (Johnson) who is now in the CIA.
Johnson's character is going to be the highlight of the movie. This seems like the perfect kind of role for him. He previously talked about the film and the inspiration behind his character saying:
"The inspiration behind this character ‘Bob’ has always been Tom Hanks in ‘Big’ with an added twist. He’s a grown man who’s extremely childlike and views the world thru exuberant and enthusiastic teenage eyes… Loves to wear his favorite Public Enemy shirt, cargo pants and sneakers to work.. and rocks a fanny pack which holds his Bruce Lee quotes and a condom (he’s always prepared). The ‘added twist’ is Bob has an extremely high IQ and is one of the most lethal men on the planet as a C.I.A. contract killer. Oh the most important character trait: He hates bullies."
The movie was helmed by We’re the Millers director Rawson Thurber Marshall and the rest of the cast includes Amy Ryan, Ed Helms, Danielle Nicolet and Bobby Brown...yes, that Bobby Brown.
Central Intelligence hits theaters on June 17th, 2016.
