First Look: Ben Gibbard in 'Brief Interviews With Hideous Men'

We’d heard at one point that Ben Gibbard’s part in John Krasinski’s film adaptation of the David Foster Wallace novel “Brief Interviews With Hideous Men” was left on the cutting room floor. As the dust settles and it becomes clear that Gibbard did make the cut, we’re happy to present a first look at a still of the Death Cab for Cutie front man’s acting debut.

After getting lukewarm to negative reviews at Sundance the first trailer was released and now it seems the Internets are all “oh hay guy, maybe this movie isn’t so bad mmkay!” Jury’s still out for The Playlist.
