On Monday, Collider got themselves an exclusive in the form of the first trailer for Arizona, the Danny McBride-starring dark comedy which originally premiered at Sundance this past January. As you'll be able to see in a minute (should you want to) the film takes place in 2009 just after the real-life housing bubble burst. That's not a coincidence because, as you can also see, McBride plays the role of an angry client who cannot sell his house and thus takes it out on his real estate agent, played by Rosemarie DeWitt. The results look simultaneously funny and disturbing.
As RLJE Films wrote in the YouTube info for the trailer:
Cassie (Rosemarie DeWitt, La La Land) is a real estate agent and single mom struggling to keep it all together during the housing crisis of 2009. Her problems go from bad to worse when disgruntled client Sonny (Danny McBride, Pineapple Express) violently confronts Cassie’s boss and then kidnaps Cassie – making one outrageously bad, and bloody, decision after another. Things completely spiral out of control in this explosive action comedy, also starring Luke Wilson (Idiocracy), Kaitlin Olson (“It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”), David Alan Grier (“The Carmichael Show”) and Elizabeth Gillies (“Dynasty”).
For those who jumped the synopsis, the rest of the starring cast includes: Luke Wilson, Lolli Sorenson, David Alan Grier, Elizabeth Gillies, and Kaitlin Olson. Anyway you can catch the whole film, very shortly, when it hits theaters and On Demand on August 24. Until then try to remain satisfied with the two-minute trailer, which you can watch at your convenience below:
