Scarlett Johansson stars in the funny new trailer for Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s directorial debut, Don Jon

"Everyone loves a happy ending..."

Eoghan Doherty

JOE brings you the latest trailers in association with the good folk over at Magnet.

In his first outing as a feature film director, Joseph Gordon-Levitt stars as Jon Martello, a confident New York lothario nicknamed Don Jon due to his amazing ability to “pull 10s” each and every weekend.

When he starts relationships with both movie-obsessed Barbara (Scarlett Johansson) and older lover Esther (Julianne Moore) though, he realises that his late-night addiction to porn might just get in the way of his relationship. That, and the fact he’s attempting to go out with two lovers at the same time. We’ve heard that ladies don’t really like it when you do that.

Casting yourself as the lead love interest opposite Scarlett Johannson AND Julianne Moore though? That is undoubtedly one of the greatest perks of being the director of your own film.

The clip, although only short in length, is very funny, stars the legendary Tony Danza as Don Jon Sr.  and, most importantly, features the ridiculously talented and muscly actor singing along to Good Vibrations by Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch.

Any film featuring Mark or any of his Funky Bunch comrades automatically gets the JOE vote.

Enjoy:

Don Jon is scheduled for release in Irish cinemas in November.

Make sure to have the best broadband in town before trying to find out any more about Don Jon. Thankfully, the lads over at Magnet will be able to sort you out with their fatpipe which has up to 70mb broadband speeds.
