The only thing you probably need to know about this movie is that is has Tom Hardy and a puppy. Okay, it also has the late James Gandolfini in one of his final roles, the always compelling Noomi Rapace, and the rock solid Matthias Schoenaerts, but we’d suggest to Fox Searchlight that there’s still time to change the name of “The Drop” to “Tom Hardy Puppy Party.” Just sayin’…
Anyway, a new international trailer has dropped for the movie, bringing a fresh look at the Dennis Lehane adaptation, directed by “Bullhead” helmer Michaël Roskam. The story is something you might expect from Lehane too, following a dude just trying to walk the right path, who gets embroiled in a robbery gone wrong and the consequences that come with that. It’s all about sins and trying to move to your future, even as your past haunts you. Potentially intriguing material, and certainly the kind of stuff we want to see this cast bite into.
“The Drop” arrives on September 12th.[Empire]
