The Nice Guys gets a filthy, funky trailer

05 Dec 2015

Words by Little White Lies

Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe partner up in Shane Black’s raucous ​’70s crime comedy.

The first teaser for Shane Black’s LA buddy comedy has dropped and it’s a real doozy. The Iron Man 3 director has recruited Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling in the lead roles, the former playing Jackson Healy, a surly private investigator who uncovers a conspiracy surrounding the death of a pornstar. Given their respective career paths of late, it’s intriguing to see these dramatic heavyweights pair up for what looks to be a rollicking period caper. Any film in which R‑Goz sports a’70s collar and a Tom Selleck ​’stache has got to be worth a look, right?
