Official Trailer for Wacky Comedy 'Coup!' with Sarsgaard & Magnussen

"You're blaming everyone but yourself" Greenwich Ent. has revealed the official trailer for a wacky indie film called Coup!, from filmmakers Joseph Schuman & Austin Stark. This originally premiered at last year's 2023 Venice Film Festival in the Directors' Fortnight (Giornate degli Autori) sidebar. Set during the Spanish Flu of 1918, a rebellious servant leads a revolt against his wealthy employer. It's now ready for an art house release starting in August this summer - it's opening in less than a month. Isolated on a seaside estate, an entitled journalist (Billy Magnussen) and his socialite wife (Sarah Gadon) take in a mysterious grifter as a private cook (Peter Sarsgaard). When a plague descends on the island, the wily cook rouses his fellow staff to rebel and take over the mansion. Their wealthy employer suspects the cook's coup is part of a dangerous agenda, and mind games between master and servant escalate into boisterous class warfare. Starring Peter Sarsgaard, Billy Magnussen, Sarah Gadon, Skye P. Marshall, Faran Tahir, Kristine Nielsen & Fisher Stevens. This film looks like it starts out interesting, then goes totally off the rails crazy by the end. // Continue Reading ›
