AceShowbiz - Matt Damon reunites with George Clooney in a dark comedy, "Suburbicon", which has Clooney serving behind the lens. The first trailer for the movie sees Damon as Gardner Lodge, a husband and father in the peaceful town of Suburbicon whose life is turned upside down after his wife is murdered by a mob.
Now living with his sister-in-law (Julianne Moore) while getting through the grief, Gardner is forced to make a bad decision when the mob tries to kill his son. He turns into a cold-blooded person and goes after mobsters who ruined his life.
According to the official synopsis, "Suburbicon is a peaceful, idyllic suburban community with affordable homes and manicured lawns...the perfect place to raise a family, and in the summer of 1959, the Lodge family is doing just that. But the tranquil surface masks a disturbing reality, as husband and father Gardner Lodge must navigate the town’s dark underbelly of betrayal, deceit, and violence. This is a tale of very flawed people making very bad choices. This is Suburbicon."
Clooney co-wrote the script along with the Coen brothers and Grant Heslov. Also starring Oscar Isaac, Noah Jupe, Josh Brolin, Glenn Fleshler and more, the R-rated movie is set to open in U.S. theaters on October 27.
