Funny how folks like Sean Penn and Steven Soderbergh talk about "retiring" from movie making every other year, yet they always seem to get drawn back in. In this case, the first trailer for the upcoming August 18th 2017 release for LOGAN LUCKY features Soderbergh back behind the directing chair, overlooking another big cast featuring names like Channing Tatum, Adam Driver, Daniel Craig (with a fun Southern accent), Katie Holmes, Hilary Swank, Seth McFarlane (!), Riley Keough, amongst others.
Trying to reverse a family curse, brothers Jimmy (Channing Tatum) and Clyde Logan (Adam Driver) set out to execute an elaborate robbery during the legendary Coca-Cola 600 race at the Charlotte Motor Speedway.
The film feels a lot like his previous OCEANS heist flicks, with just enough humor to balance off the over-the-top heist scenario. Dropping its inaugral trailer on a lazy Sunday afternoon, one day before Memorial Day, seems a little odd, but then again, it is a Nascar film, so I guess the Sunday release makes some sense on that front. But enough rambling, what do y'all think?
