The fear, the tension, the intrigue; this looks fantastic…
“Say hello to probably the most hated man in America right now” – Ben Affleck. And no, it’s not because people aren’t happy with his chubby, sad Batman look…
Affleck stars as Nick Dunne in the big-screen adaptation of Gillian Flynn’s best-selling thriller, Gone Girl, as a man who, after his beautiful wife Amy Elliot Dunne (Rosamund Pike) goes missing, is put under extreme scrutiny as people question his role in her mysterious disappearance.
Is he responsible for his wife’s vanishing, or is he just pretending to be “a good guy so that everybody can see him being a good guy?” Ooooooooooooh, intriguing…
We haven’t read the book yet because we’re still making our way through our extensive Goosebumps collection, but we can assure you, after watching the excellent trailer for the new WhoDunneIt, we cannot wait to see this film.
As well as the supremely-talented cast on board (plus Tyler Perry), Gone Girl is helmed by the imcomparable genius that is director David Fincher, one of JOE’s all-time Hollywood heroes and responsible for directing some of our most favouritestest films ever, including Fight Club, Se7en and The Social Network.
No pressure there then David, eh? To be honest though, it looks like the man has got everything under control…
