Every generation has its Gangster movie. The 90s had Goodfellas, the 80s had Scarface, the 70s had The Godfather. Now, the creators of Gangster Squad are hoping they've created the next one. Check out the new featurette:
Sean Penn plays Mickey Cohen, a real-life gangster who moved from New York to Los Angeles in the 1940s to take over. In order to fight Cohen and his gang out of the city, a group of cops go rogue, throwing the law to the wind.
Ryan Gosling (Drive), Josh Brolin, Nick Nolte, Emma Stone (The Amazing Spider-Man), Giovanni Ribisi, and Michael Pena also star.
Ruben Fleischer directs the film, which is written by Will Beall and based on the book Tales from the Gangster Squad by Paul Lieberman. Gangster Squad will hit theaters January 11, 2013.
