We have added a new poster and clip for the upcoming thriller The Next Three Days.
Russell Crowe teams up with Academy Award®-winning writer/director Paul Haggis (Crash) and co-star Elizabeth Banks for this incredibly smart Lionsgate thriller concerning a man willing to break his wife out of prison in order to get her out of a murder conviction. Liam Neeson heads up the supporting cast, which includes Brian Dennehy, Olivia Wilde, Daniel Stern and RZA.
New The Next Three Days Poster
Lionsgate have unveiled a brand new poster for The Next Three Days. The film is based on a French film Pour Elle about a dedicated husband who breaks his wife out of jail.
Russell Crowe and Elizabeth Banks star as the happily married twosome — happy, that is, up until Banks is arrested for murder, turns suicidal, and Crowe has to go renegade (plus learn how to load a gun) to bust her out. Liam Neeson plays an ex-con who helps the broken-up but determined Crowe plan the escape, which will, per the trailer’s very last, overwrought action shot, include Banks almost — but we guess not quite — getting hit by a truck while dangling out of a moving vehicle.
