As we’ve learned from their past collaborations (Silver Linings Playbook, American Hustle), whenever you put Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper, and director David O. Russell together, things get intense. Things also seem to get really good, as confirmed by the multiple Oscar nominations that each of those films received. With the upcoming release of their new film Joy, these three look like they’re not about to let the magic fade.
When watching the first trailer for Joy, you’d never guess that it’s based on the true life story of Joy Mangano—the inventor of the Miracle Mop. Maybe that’s because one doesn’t typically associate the well-known household product with eerie voice over, a haunting chorale version of The Rolling Stones’ “You Can’t Always Get What You Want,” or Jennifer Lawrence shooting a rifle…
Needless to say, the teaser is a wild ride from start to finish that will prepare you for, what looks to be, a delightfully strange film.
Robert De Niro, Isabella Rossellini, Edgar Ramirez, and Diane Ladd round out the film’s star-studded cast.
Joy is set to hit theaters on Christmas Day.
