Watch: Jessica Chastain as a Lobbyist in First Trailer for 'Miss Sloane'

Written by

“How the hell did she manage that?!” EuropaCorp has unveiled the trailer for the sure-to-be-controversial new drama Miss Sloane, starring Jessica Chastain as an ambitious lobbyist. Chastain plays Elizabeth Sloane, who is brought in to help fight for legislation requiring more stringent background checks for gun ownership. Of course she encounters an absurd amount of stubborn and powerful resistance, and this trailer teases that opposition. Also starring Mark Strong, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Alison Pill, Jake Lacy, John Lithgow, Michael Stuhlbarg, Sam Waterston & Dylan Baker. This looks very impressive, and I fully support Chastain’s character and all she is fighting for. It also makes me a bit sad, because she is obviously going to be “annihilated”. The film is likely going to play both sides equally, but still, we know. Take a look. ›››
