With the release of the first poster and trailer for the upcoming drama The Pursuit of Happyness starring Dan Castellaneta, Kurt Fuller, James Karen, Thandie Newton, Joe Nunez, Jaden Smith, Will Smith and Kevin West, we figured it was time for an official preview.
The Pursuit of Happyness Trailer, Poster and Synopsis
"Don't ever let somebody tell you you can't do something. ...You got a dream, you gotta protect it... If you want something, go get it. Period."
In Columbia Pictures' The Pursuit of Happyness, Chris Gardner (Will Smith) is a bright and talented, but marginally employed salesman. Struggling to make ends meet, Gardner finds himself and his five-year-old son evicted from their San Francisco apartment with nowhere to go. When Gardner lands an internship at a prestigious stock brokerage firm, he and his son endure many hardships, including living in shelters, in pursuit of his dream of a better life for the two of them.

The trailer for Happyness looks good, but I had hoped for a little more comedy from a film with 'Happy' in the title.
The Pursuit of Happyness comes to theatres
on December 15th.
