Investment banking isn't usually a subject that you'd think would make for an exciting movie, but following the financial collapse there was a lot of interest in the script for Margin Call, which managed to scare up a superb cast including Kevin Spacey, Paul Bettany, Jeremy Irons, Zachary Quinto (who also produces), Penn Badgeley, Simon Baker, Mar McDonell, Demi Moore and Stanley Tucci. Now the first proper trailer has arrived, which you can see below. The film is set over a 24-hour period and follows eight people at a prominent investment bank as they deal with the storm that accompanied the early stages of the financial crisis. Tucci's financial whizz realises something is seriously amiss, but he'd prevented from telling anyone about the wrongdoing at the company, and then the shit really hits the fan as morals are tested and the world teeters on the brink of financial meltdown. In does look like it could be a lot more fascinating than you'd ever expect banking to be! There's no UK release set at the moment, but it'll reach the US in October.
