Bearing it’s American title, The Brothers Grimsby, the new trailer for Sacha Baron Cohen and Mark Strong starring spy comedy Grimsby debuted on Jimmy Kimmel Lice last night, and who knew the odd pairing of these two actors could be so entertaining.
Of course, this is Baron Cohen’s show, with the comedian getting all the best lines (especially the running joke at the end), but Strong seems to be playing the perfect straight man, and director Lois LeTerrier (Now You See Me) is packing in plenty of action around all the hilarity.
Released: 10th March 2016 (IRL/U.K.)/ 11th March 2016 (U.S.)
Synopsis: Nobby (Sacha Baron Cohen) has everything a man from Grimsby could want, including 11 children and the most gorgeous girlfriend in the northeast of England (Rebel Wilson). There’s only one thing missing: his little brother, Sebastian (Mark Strong), who Nobby has spent 28 years searching for after they were separated as kids. Nobby sets off to reunite with Sebastian, unaware that not only is his brother MI6’s deadliest assassin, but he’s just uncovered plans for an imminent global terrorist attack. On the run and wrongfully accused, Sebastian realizes that if he is going to save the world, he will need the help of its biggest idiot.
