Soon, the pair find themselves entangled with a criminal figure (Cruz) and connected in ways no one saw coming.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tThe trailer finds Depp gray-haired, with a scraggly beard, eerie eyes and thick accent, getting thrown to the ground and arrested. He\u2019s reminiscent of the unstoppable force Max Cady, played most recently by Javier Bardem, in Apple\u2019s Cape Fear.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\t\u201cI\u2019ve made a living out of misbehavior,\u201d Depp warns. \u201cI see no tangible reason to stop now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tLater, his character shares, \u201cMy story, perhaps it\u2019s a tale of revenge, or perhaps something worse. What if all this is a ghost story? Or maybe I\u2019m just another day drinker.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tVisually, the trailer promises gun and axe-driven combat, a perhaps supernaturally gifted Cruz, and some time out on the water \u2014 also establishing what has led Depp to seek revenge, as a dead woman drifts down into the sea.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tMarc Webb directed Day Drinker from a script by Zach Dean with Basil Iwanyk, Erica Lee, Adam Kolbrenner, Dean and Nathan Kahane producing. Exec producers included Dan Friedkin, Micah Green, Daniel Steinman, Stephen Deuters, Jason Forman, Sam Sarkar, Webb, Eric Sherman, Sarah Hong, Scott LaStaiti, Adri\u00e1n Guerra and Xavier Parache.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tThe film is Depp and Cruz\u2019s fourth together, following Blow, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides and Murder on the Orient Express. It marks one of Depp\u2019s first big tests, as he returns to big leading man roles for the first time since the conclusion of his U.S. defamation case against Amber Heard in 2022. The first hitting theaters is Ti West\u2019s take on Ebenezer for Paramount, out November 13; prior to this year, his last studio film was Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald in 2018.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tCheck out the trailer for Day Drinker by clicking above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Lionsgate has unveiled the first trailer for Day Drinker, a supernatural revenge thriller marking one of Johnny Depp\u2018s&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":859118,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[362666,88,32394,14968,206,9552],"class_list":["post-859117","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-day-drinker","tag-entertainment","tag-johnny-depp","tag-lionsgate","tag-movies","tag-trailers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/859117","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=859117"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/859117\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/859118"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=859117"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=859117"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=859117"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
