We Got This Covered is pleased to exclusively unveil a new clip from Glass Chin, a terrific-looking crime noir about a former boxer (Corey Stoll, of Ant-Man) who is led down a dark path of crime and moral corruption by a crooked restauranteur (Billy Crudup).
In the excerpt from the film, Bud Gordon (Stoll) takes a drive with Roberto Flash (Yul Vazquez) to go see J.J. (Crudup), who has opened up an art gallery, much to Roberto’s dislike. It’s a small but potent example of some of the fine acting sure to be rampant throughout Glass Chin.
The pic, written and directed by Noah Buschel, premiered at Tribeca last year to strong reviews, with Stoll’s lead performance garnering particular acclaim. Between this, House of Cards and Stoll’s villainous role in this summer’s Ant-Man, the actor seems poised to soar to the top of Hollywood’s most-wanted list.
Here’s the synopsis for Glass Chin:
After going down in the fifth round, boxer Bud Gordon (Corey Stoll) bowed out of the limelight. Now residing in a fixer-upper apartment in New Jersey with his girlfriend, Bud longs for his former Manhattan glory. In an effort to get back in the game, he makes a deal with a crooked restauranteur (Billy Crudup). But quick schemes rarely bring easy pay-offs and as the consequences of his business negotiations unfold, Bud has to make a choice between his integrity and his ambitions.
Marin Ireland, Katherine Waterston and David Johansen co-star in the film, which eOne is giving a day-and-date theatrical and VOD release on June 26.
