Critical popcorn

It’s not often you get a trailer that already seems intriguing but then goes a little batshit crazy, and then, you definitely want to see it! This first trailer for Sorry To Bother You looks to be something different and in all kinds of epic, surprising ways!

Directed by Boots Riley and starring Lakeith Stanfield, Tessa Thompson, Jermaine Fowler, Terry Crews, Danny Glover and Armie Hammer. Sorry To Bother You is set in an alternate reality of present-day Oakland, California where telemarketer Cassius Green (Stanfield) finds himself in a macabre universe after he discovers a magical key that leads to material glory. As Green’s career begins to take off, his friends and co-workers organise a protest against corporate oppression but Cassius soon falls under the spell of Steve Lift (Hammer), a cocaine-snorting CEO who offers him a salary beyond his wildest dreams.

The film has the world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival and Universal Pictures wanted to offer up this beauty here in the UK:

Sorry To Bother You is in UK cinemas from 7th December.
