?If you were a casino game, you?d have the best odds.? So says Kyle (Seth Rogen) to his best friend Adam (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) after finding out he has a 50/50 chance of beating his recently diagnosed cancer. Based on the real-life experience of screenwriter (and Rogen pal) Will Reiser, 50/50 is hoping to thread the needle between comedy and drama, all while dealing with a touchy subject: potentially terminal illness. Judging from the latest trailer, it won?t be as hard as you?d imagine. Click through for a look.
Owing to the fact that this trailer is some 30 seconds shorter than the previous one, there isn?t much new footage presented; about the only major change is the banner ?From the guys that brought you Superbad? (Rogen and Evan Goldberg are producers). That?s fine, though: the first trailer set up the premise and tone with precision, and this shorter version follows a similar path. You can already see the bro-ly chemistry between the two leads ? ?They?re body trimmers, so?? ? and while the scenes between Gordon-Levitt and Anna Kendrick feel a bit rom-com boilerplate-y, that?s not the worst thing as long as their relationship is handled well in the finished product. Also, take note: Michael Giacchino wrote the score. High hopes for this one.
VERDICT: Like those odds.
Directed by Jonathan Levine (The Wackness), Summit releases 50/50 on Sept. 30.
