And now, it's time to pass along the third trailer from Warner Bros. this week, also expected to be attached to The Dark Knight in some locations. The first two are Terminator Salvation, which is already online, and Watchmen, which appears online tomorrow. This third one is Ridley Scott's Body of Lies, a CIA thriller that stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Russell Crowe, Carice Van Houten and Vince Colosimo. Scott directed the thriller, based on a screenplay by William Monahan and Steve Zaillian.

Plot Summary: Based on Washington Post columnist David Ignatius' 2007 novel about a CIA operative, Roger Ferris (Leonardo DiCaprio), who uncovers a lead on a major terrorist leader suspected to be operating out of Jordan. When Ferris devises a plan to infiltrate his network, he must first win the backing of cunning CIA veteran Ed Hoffman (Russell Crowe) and the collegial, but perhaps suspect, head of Jordanian intelligence. Although ostensibly his allies, Ferris questions how far he can really trust these men without putting his entire operation - and his life - on the line.

Body of Lies will hit theaters Oct. 10, 2008.

Looks great! I love these kinds of thrillers, hence the name. And with that team you can't go wrong.

Can you really go wrong with Ridley Scott, Russell Crowe and Leo DiCaprio. You know its straight Cheddar!

Excellent.

Does not sound like anything new or original. Might be a good one time viewing for the weekend and forget about it.

It may turn out good but I'm not feeling this trailer. The spy thriller of the summer I think is going to be TRAITOR with Don Cheadle and Guy Pearce but Jarrod isn't showing that movie any love (no news or trailers here).

I think Leo is awesome, but Crowe just sometimes urks me. This looks like it is going to be pretty damn good. I am sure I will check it out.

Can't say the trailer grabbed me. I agree with Dazzler that it does look a little generic but, as pony pointed out, that's some talent there.

What's that there Cheadle/Pearce flick, WISE? That's some damn fine talent there as well. Ain't heard squat about it though. Is there a trailer somewhere for that?

Cheadle = Hannibal Smith. You know it to be true!

Took the trailer forever to load so i didn't see it. But, i did see the traitor preview - I will check that out. Cheadle is one of the premiere actors out there.

I agree with whiskey about Crowe - he can get on your nerves a bit. But like Pony said - with the name recognition for this movie you know it will get great reviews.


BTW, did anybody see the related products section Girl explores Girl - Alien Encounter & Alien Sex Party. What's up with that?

joey, you can check out TRAITOR's trailer at http://www.apple.com/trailers/ or http://www.apple.com/trailers/independent/traitor/trailer2/
I think this looks really good, much better than this judging just by the trailers.
