Intense Trailer For Frank Darabont's New Series MOB CITY
TNT has released the first intense promo trailer for Frank Darabont's highly anticipated new series Mob City , which was previously called L.A. Noir and Lost Angels. Both of which were better titles than Mob City.
The six-part series takes place in Los Angeles in 1947, and it's based on the real-life accounts of the cops and gangsters of the time. "This is the seductive story of the violent crime underbelly of America's most glamorous city and those who wanted to control it."
The series stars Walking Dead alums Jon Bernthal and Jeffrey DeMunn, as well as Ed Burns, Simon Pegg, Neal McDonough, Jeremy Luke, and more.
I'm of fan of the classic crime noir films, and this series looks really cool! It's set to premiere on December 4th, and here's the synopsis:
Jon Bernthal plays Joe Teague, an ex-Marine now working as an LAPD cop in an era rampant with police corruption. Jeffrey DeMunn plays Detective Hal Morrison, who heads the LAPD’s new mob squad, with Jeremy Strong as Detective Mike Hendry, Morrison’s second in command. Neal McDonough is Capt. William Parker, Teague’s boss who is determined to weed out corruption and bring down Cohen. And Milo Ventimiglia plays Ned Stax, who fought alongside Teague during World War II but who now works as a lawyer with connections to the mob. The project also co-stars Ron Rifkin playing Los Angeles Mayor Fletcher Bowron, who makes it his mission to clean up corruption in city government; Pihla Viitala as Anya, the head bartender at Bunny’s on Central Avenue, the West Coast center of the black jazz scene; and Alexa Davalos as Jasmine, a beautiful woman whose past has come back to haunt her.
