The International
Though Clive Owen missed the opportunity to be Bond, he's still trying to handle the action-thriller genre with The International.
The International Trailer
In The International, a gripping thriller, Interpol Agent Louis Salinger (Clive Owen) and Manhattan Assistant District Attorney Eleanor Whitman (Naomi Watts) are determined to bring to justice one of the world's most powerful banks. Uncovering myriad and reprehensible illegal activities, Salinger and Whitman follow the money from Berlin to Milan to New York to Istanbul. Finding themselves in a high-stakes chase across the globe, their relentless tenacity puts their own lives at risk as their targets will stop at nothing – even murder – to continue financing terror and war.
I would normally call this trailer badass but, coming off Quantum of Solace, it's hard to get amped up by anything at the moment. Well, anything other than Bond. You can check out the trailer for The International at Quicktime or watch it below:
The International opens to theaters on August 15, 2008.
