Having spent most of 2016 in the Batsuit, Ben Affleck is branching out again, with the first trailer dropping for ‘20s gangster drama Live By Night. And from the looks of this first footage, it should be an absolute cracker!

The new thriller sees Affleck play Joe Coughlin, the son of a Boston cop who finds himself sliding into the world of organized crime. “I wanna be a gangster”, he says towards the beginning of the trailer, and it sure looks like he gets his wish…

Check out the new trailer, below.

It might not be Gotham, but ‘20s Boston looks just as packed full of bad guys… only this time around, Affleck won’t be on the side of the angels. Bruce Wayne might play a little rough from time to time, but Joe Coughlin looks like a straight-up wrong’un!

With an A-list squad of supporting players including Zoe Saldana, Sienna Miller. Brendan Gleeson, Elle Fanning and Chris Cooper, and Affleck pulling double duty by stepping behind the camera, this one looks set to be one of next year’s biggest hitters. Live By Night will open in the UK on 13 January 2017.
