The makers of Nightcrawler have tried something a bit different with some of the first marketing for the movie, as rather than releasing a normal teaser trailer, they posted a Craigslist ad, linked to a video where Jake Gyllenhaal is a hard worker seeking employment.
It’s an interesting way of doing things, especially as the makers have deliberately been keeping quiet about the exact plot, other than that it centres on a driven young man who discovers the nocturnal world of LA freelance crime journalism.
Dan Gilroy wrote the script and makes his directorial debut with the movie, which is due out later this year.
Take a look at the tease below.
