‘The Magnificent Seven’ Teaser Trailer and Pics with Chris Pratt, Denzel Washington
“Justice has a number” and it’s seven, The Magnificent Seven – the remake of the 1960 film that starred Charles Bronson, Steve McQueen and Yul Brunner. For 2016, the new Antoine Fuqua-directed film stars Denzel Washington, Chris Pratt and Byung-hun Lee and centers around a group of outlaws, mercenaries, bounty hunters and gamblers who find themselves employed by the desperate townspeople of Rose Creek who are being overrun by a villainous industrialist (played, of course, by Peter Sarsgaard).
Filling out the cast are Ethan Hawke, Vincent D’Onofrio, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, Martin Sensmeier, Haley Bennett, Cam Gigandet, Vinnie Jones and Matt Bomer. The film is set for release September 23rd from Sony Pictures.
Here’s the first teaser:
Erik Anderson is the founder/owner and Editor-in-Chief of AwardsWatch and has always loved all things Oscar, having watched the Academy Awards since he was in single digits; making lists, rankings and predictions throughout the show. This led him down the path to obsessing about awards. Much later, he found himself in film school and the film forums of GoldDerby, and then migrated over to the former Oscarwatch (now AwardsDaily), before breaking off to create AwardsWatch in 2013.
He is a Rotten Tomatoes-approved critic, accredited by the Cannes Film Festival, Telluride Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival and more, is a member of the International Cinephile Society (ICS), The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics (GALECA), Critics Choice Association (CCA), San Francisco Bay Area Film Critics Circle (SFBAFCC) and the International Press Academy. Among his many achieved goals with AwardsWatch, he has given a platform to underrepresented writers and critics and supplied them with access to film festivals and the industry and calls the Bay Area his home where he lives with his husband and son.
