Now I have to admit that I do like a gangster movie and one of the films in this genre that I am most looking forward to the most is Gangster Squad.

And if there is one thing that should get you excited about this movie then it is the eye-watering cast.

Josh Brolin leads that cast and he is joined by Ryan Gosling, Emma Stone, Giovanni Ribisi, Anthony Mackie, Nick Nolte and two time Oscar winner Sean Penn.

And here is the new international trailer – which does feature a tiny bit of new footage:

Los Angeles, 1949. Ruthless, Brooklyn-born mob king Mickey Cohen (Sean Penn) runs the show in this town, reaping the ill-gotten gains from the drugs, the guns, the prostitutes and, if he has his way, every wire bet placed west of Chicago.

And he does it all with the protection of not only his own paid goons, but also the police and the politicians who are under his control.

It’s enough to intimidate even the bravest, street-hardened cop – except, perhaps, for the small, secret crew of LAPD outsiders led by Sgt. John O’Mara (Josh Brolin) and Jerry Wooters (Ryan Gosling), who come together to try to tear Cohen’s world apart.

Gangster Squad is a colorful retelling of events surrounding the LAPD’s efforts to take back their nascent city from one of the most dangerous mafia bosses of all time.

Gangster Squad is released 9th November.
