Like Don Jon, this would be another late addition to our list of most anticipated movies of 2013 if the trailer had been released last year. Oscar nominated writer/director David O. Russell (Three Kings) is hosting a reunion of sorts with an ensemble cast of incredible star power in his next film, American Hustle. It features Batman Christian Bale and four-time Oscar nominee Amy Adams, both of whom were in Russell’s The Fighter, which raked in seven Oscar nominations, including a Best Supporting Actor win for Bale.
American Hustle also stars Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence, and two-time Oscar winner Robert De Niro; all three appeared last year in Russell’s Silver Linings Playbook, which scored eight Oscar nominations, including two for Russell and one each for Cooper, De Niro, and Lawrence, who ultimately won to become the second youngest Best Actress winner ever. American Hustle also stars two-time Oscar nominee Jeremy Renner and somewhat out of left field, Louis C.K., the Emmy and Grammy-winning comedian.
Now check out the snazzy trailer! American Hustle is set for limited release on December 13, 2013, and wide release on December 25, 2013.
