The first trailer for Out of the Furnace hooked me with its stellar cast (Christian Bale, Casey Affleck, Forest Whitaker, Willem Dafoe, Woody Harrelson, amongst others); this second trailer for the Scott Cooper-directed drama/thriller has me even more excited for the film. As is the case with most trailers, the new footage introduces the main conflict in the film: Rodney (Affleck), an Iraq War vet, gets entangled with an underground drug ring. His older brother, Russell (Bale), takes matters into his own hands to find what happened to Rodney after the police have given up their investigation.

Following in line with recent and upcoming revenge/vigilante films (OldboyPrisonersTaken, etc.), Out of the Furnace appears to be tantalizing and full of suspense with the right amount of action and drama filtered in. Out of the Furnace will be in select theaters November 27th with a wider release following a week after on December 6th.
