TRESPASS AGAINST US Trailer: Michael Fassbender and Brendan Gleeson Play Father and Son in This Crime Thriller
I'll see just about anything with Michael Fassbender or Brendan Gleeson in it, so a crime thriller in which they play father and son at odds with each other is a nice little two-for-one. (It also helps that A24, a company I admire and whose tastes tend to align with mine, is distributing the film.) It's called Trespass Against Us, and the first trailer has been released online (via The Film Stage). It's been a while since I've seen a good generational crime movie (The Place Beyond The Pines is the most recent one I can think of off the top of my head), so hopefully this will scratch that itch.
Trespass Against Us is being eyed for a 2017 release.
Trespass Against Us is set across three generations of the Cutler family who live as outlaws in their own anarchic corner of Britain’s richest countryside. Chad Cutler (Michael Fassbender) is heir apparent to his bruising criminal father, Colby (Brendan Gleeson) and has been groomed to spend his life hunting, thieving and tormenting the police. But with his own son, Tyson (Georgie Smith) coming of age, Chad soon finds himself locked in a battle with his father for the future of his young family. When Colby learns of Chad’s dreams for another life he sets out to tie his son and grandson into the archaic order that has bound the Cutler family for generations. He engineers a spectacular piece of criminal business involving a heist, a high-speed car chase and a manhunt, which leaves Chad bruised and bloodied and with his very freedom at stake.
