When I first heard Oliver Stone was coming back with a sequel to his 1987 classic, I cringed. Not another sequel! But after seeing the new trailer for Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps, I may have to reconsider that notion. Michael Douglas reprises his role as Wall street shark Gordon Gekko, who is fresh out of jail, and teams up with rookie financial trader Jacob Moore (played by Shia Lebeouf) to prevent the financial industry from its impending demise. Ever since Eagle Eye, I don't really think Labeouf is believable in these type of films, but maybe he'll shock me. Wall Street 2 also stars Susan Sarandon, Charlie Sheen (reprising his role of Bud Fox), Josh Brolin, and Carey Mulligan (An Education). The film hits theaters September 24. Check out the trailer below. What do you think?
I have to admit I was the exact opposite of you. This trailer makes me cringe a little. It looks so bland, and the poster... *shivers*, I'm not sure but this just screams bad to me.
