First Trailer For The Whole Truth

 

Do you solemnly swear to tell the truth, The Whole Truth, and nothing but the truth? That’s the question presented by Keanu Reeves’ defense attorney Richard Ramsay in the inaugural trailer for Courtney Hunt’s upcoming legal drama.

Agreeing to take on a case for the sake of close friend, Loretta Lassiter, Reeves fights for the right of her disgraced son Mike, who was found guilty (?) and later imprisoned for murdering his father. But an open-and-shut case this is not, after allegations emerge that Loretta actually fooled the jury into thinking that her estranged husband was guilty of domestic abuse. Keep your peepers peeled for the shot of Zellweger’s widow inflicting bruises on her own arm, for instance.

It’s all very melodramatic, but the mere inclusion of Keanu Reeves, who impressed even when holding a small role in The Neon Demon earlier this year, is enough to pique our curiosity for Hunt’s legal spat.
