The New Red-Band Trailer For ‘The Interview’ Is Way Better Than The First One!

Briefly: I wasn’t overly impressed with the first trailer for Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg’s The Inverview, but today’s full-length, theatrical preview takes us much deeper into the film’s overarching plot, and definitely raises my excitement for the feature.

The video shows us exactly why Rogen and Franco are interviewing Kim Jong-Un, and also why they’re trying to assassinate him. The trailer garnered plenty of laughs and ‘oh crap’ moments from me, and now I can’t wait to get in line. The Rogen/Goldberg duo that’s so hot right now is also taking care of the ‘Console Wars’ adaptation, which I’m looking forward to even more after spending some time with author Blake Harris at SDCC this year.

In any case, take a look at the new trailer below, and be sure to let us know what you think! The Interview will hit theatres on December 25th!

Dave Skylark (James Franco) is king of the celebrity interview and host of the hit night time talk show “Skylark Tonight.” The brain behind Dave’s empire is his producer and best friend, Aaron Rapoport (Seth Rogen). Unfulfilled, Aaron yearns to do meaningful work. He scores the chance of a lifetime when he secures an interview for Dave with Kim Jong-Un, the mysterious and ruthless dictator of a nuclear-armed North Korea. As Dave and Aaron prepare to leave for North Korea, they are approached by the CIA and asked to assassinate Kim. They accept the mission, becoming two of the least qualified men ever to assassinate—or interview—the most dangerous man on Earth.
