Nicolas Cage Is a Ruthless Mob Boss in Trailer for the Action Thriller ARSENAL
Want to see Nicolas Cage play another crazy character? He plays a ruthless crime lord in a new film called Arsenal, and as you'll see in this first trailer, he completely transformed himself for the role. He's not as recognizable as he usually is. The action thriller also stars John Cusack and Entourage star Adrian Grenier. It's a pretty good cast for such a mediocre looking film. Maybe it will end up being better than this trailer makes it out to be.
Arsenal tells the intertwining stories of the Lindel brothers, Mikey (Johnathon Schaech) and JP (Grenier), who had only each other to rely on growing up. As adults, JP found success as the owner of a construction company, while Mikey became a small-time mobster, mired in a life of petty crime. When Mikey is kidnapped and held for a ransom by ruthless crime boss Eddie King (Cage), JP turns to the brothers' old pal Sal (Cusack), a plain clothes detective for help. In order to rescue his brother, JP must risk everything and unleash his vengeance against King's relentless army of gangsters.
Arsenal was directed by Steven C. Miller (The Aggression Scale, Silent Night, Submerged, Extraction), and it will be released by Lionsgate on January 6th, 2017.
