Crazy, stupid, love, indeed. "Gangster Squad" -- the "L.A. Confidential"-meets-"Untouchables" crime drama that Warner Bros. still seems set to release this year -- has its first trailer, which means "Crazy, Stupid, Love" fans can watch Ryan Gosling charm Emma Stone all over again.
The catch: Gosling is an LAPD officer, Stone is a moll, and Sean Penn's Mickey Cohen would probably not think twice about killing them both.
Directed by Ruben Fleischer ("Zombieland"), "Gangster Squad" -- which is based on Paul Lieberman's seven-part Los Angeles Times series "Tales From The Gangster Squad" -- was initially locked into an October release date, but was moved to "TBD" in favor of Ben Affleck's "Argo." Still, discounting this one as anything other than an early Oscar player seems foolish. In addition to Penn (seemingly using Leonardo DiCaprio's leftover makeup from "J. Edgar"), Gosling and Stone, the cast includes Josh Brolin, Anthony Mackie, Giovanni Ribisi, Robert Patrick and Nick Nolte. That's a great roster and all, but let's focus back on Gosling and Stone.
"You want to take me away from all this," she purrs. "No ma'am, I was just hoping to take you to bed," he retorts. Swoon! Get these two a remake of "Bringing Up Baby," stat.[/quote]

I know with such a good cast its going to be awesome
This really reminds me of the Untouchables, and therefore has the potential to be really awesome. I have my fingers crossed for this movie.
Looking forward to this. Sean Penn seems to be a giant winner is this.
After watching Drive everywhere I see ryan gosling I see him as the Driver with his satin scorpion jacket, it'll be weird seeing him as a gangster
The last gangster-epic based on a true story I watched was Public Enemies, and that was a tremendously terrible film, so I'm remaining very skeptical to this.
lol its from the guy that directed Zombieland and 30 minutes or less. I wonder how he's gonna handle going from goofy comedy to serious gangster film.
I remember seeing some pictures on IMDB a while ago and thinking it looked cool, the cast seems great. Good to see more information is out.

Usually trailer taglines are groan-inducing to me, but "No Badges, No Names, No Mercy" is [I]fucking cool.[/I]
Looks alright I suppose. The trailer music doesn't really suit a movie set in the 40's/50's though.

Well that's good because it's the 30's.

Is IMDB wrong?
"A chronicle of the LAPD's fight to keep East Coast Mafia types out of Los Angeles in the 1940s and 50s."

Mickey Cohen didn't even live in California in the 30s. The movie has to take place in the 40s or 50s because thats when he was in power in the California mob.
The style they are going for is either going to end up really cool or completely shit
ryan gosling makes me spooge
