Dominic Cooper is pulling double duty for Lee Tamahori’s forthcoming film about an Iraqi man forced to become a look-alike (or fiday) for Uday Hussein. The first trailer for The Devil’s Double feels a lot like Scarface, right down to the scantily clad women and blow.
It’s definitely got an energy to it.
Check it out for yourself:
Adding Depeche Mode certainly didn’t make it less weird. And tell me that Uday doesn’t come off a lot like Tony Montana here. This whole damned thing looks like a hellish joyride covered in mustaches and Armani.
In short, I’m sold.
The Devil’s Double hits theaters July 29th, 2011.
Would you go see it?
