‘Some Kind Of Beautiful’ Trailer: Pierce Brosnan Sleeps Around
You can take the man out of the James Bond franchise, but you can’t take the James Bond franchise out of the man. Or so it seems based on theSome Kind of Beautifultrailer, which starsPierce Brosnanas a notorious British womanizer. Sound familiar?
But while 007’s adventures usually revolved around assassins, femmes fatale, and megalomaniacs, the issues here are more mundane — marriage, a kid, an awkward love triangle. (Of course, given that said love triangle involvesSalma HayekandJessica Alba, you could argue his problems are just as exciting.) Watch theSome Kind of Beautifultrailer after the jump.
Lionsgate debuted theSome Kind of Beautifultrailer. That painfully generic title is a definite step down from the original one,How to Make Love Like an Englishman.
Brosnan plays Richard Haig, a well-liked Cambridge professor whose after-hours hobbies include sleeping with his students. Everything changes, however, when his young American girlfriend Kate (Alba) informs him she’s pregnant. He gives up the bachelor lifestyle to move to follow her back to Los Angeles, get married, and raise a kid… only to get dumped when Kate falls for someone else.
But that might actually work out just fine for him, because the real love of his life is Kate’s worldly older sister Olivia (Hayek). And Olivia adores him right back. Now the problem seems to be getting everyone’s family issues sorted out so they can all live happily ever after. Overall, it looks like a pretty standard romcom that we can hope will be elevated by the charms of Brosnan and Hayek.
Some Kind of Beautifulis directed byTom Vaughn, whose credits include the Ashton Kutcher romcomWhat Happens in Vegasand the retroactively star-studdedStarter for 10. It hits DirecTVJuly 23before rolling out into theaters and VODAugust 21.
