Magnolia Pictures & Magnet Releasing has shared a poster and trailer for Lake George, the upcoming comedic neo-noir crime thriller from writer-director Jeffrey Reiner.
Shea Whigham stars as Don, an ex-con who is tasked with carrying out a hit on Phyllis (Carrie Coon) to pay off a debt. But when he’s unable to go through with the murder to pair form a plan to join forces and steal money from the mob boss that wants Phyllis dead and start their lives over. Watch the trailer below…
When ex-con Don (Shea Whigham), fresh out of prison, visits mobster Armen (Glenn Fleshler) to collect some money he’s owed, he’s instead assigned a final task: to take care of Phyllis (Carrie Coon). Don tries to carry out the job, but he finds he can’t pull the trigger.
Instead, the pair of misfit oddballs set off on a road trip together, as their lives and standing with Armen become entangled. Phyllis soon reveals that she has designs of her own and proposes a little tag team action to Don: combine forces with the aim to steal money – a lot of money – from the people who want her dead. Don must decide whether his allegiance lies with Armen, or with the wily, charismatic woman he was supposed to kill.
Lake George arrives in cinemas and on digital on December 6th.
