The Coen brothers have been flexing their comedic muscles for years, so it’s good to see them as strong as ever in this new trailer for Hail, Caesar!. Here, it’s just one scene featuring director Laurence Lorenz (Ralph Fiennes) struggling with all his might to get Tobey (Alden Ehrenreich), a hapless Southern actor, to say his lines with the accent. He fails, and it’s absolutely hilarious seeing the pair crash and burn together.
Watch this hysterical scene from the Coen brothers’ Hail, Caesar!
The movie overall is set in the Golden Age of Hollywood, as one of the industry’s biggest names is kidnapped just as his star is beginning to fall. We’ve only seen two trailers so far and have yet to be disappointed, so it’s safe to say we’ll be seeing this movie when it hits theaters. Starring the likes of George Clooney, Tilda Swinton, and Channing Tatum, Hail, Caesar! hits theaters on February 5th.
