20th Century Studios has dropped the first behind-the-scenes featurette for Amsterdam, its upcoming all-star mystery comedy which is currently slated to arrive in theaters on October 7.
The video highlights the film’s acclaimed leading trio, consisting of Christian Bale, Margot Robbie, and John David Washington, as they discuss their characters’ unique friendship and what it’s like working with each other.
Amsterdam is written and directed by David O. Russell, which serves as his feature-directing comeback after nearly seven years, with his most recently directed film being 2015’s Golden Globe-nominated feature Joy. This project also reunites Bale with Russell after working together on The Fighter and American Hustle.
“A fascinating and richly intricate tale that brilliantly weaves historical fact with fiction for a timely, cinematic experience, 20th Century Studios’ and New Regency’s original crime epic is about three close friends who find themselves at the center of one of the most shocking secret plots in American history,” reads the synopsis.
The film stars Christian Bale, Margot Robbie, John David Washington, Chris Rock, Anya Taylor-Joy, Zoe Saldana, Mike Myers, Michael Shannon, Timothy Olyphant, Andrea Riseborough, Taylor Swift, Matthias Schoenaerts, Alessandro Nivola, Rami Malek, and Robert De Niro.
Amsterdam is being produced by Arnon Milchan, Matthew Budman, and Anthony Katagas for New Regency, with 20th Century Studios set to distribute the film.
