Seven Psychopaths sees Farrell leading an all-star cast as a struggling screenwriter who finds himself sucked into the murky Los Angeles criminal underworld when his oddball friends kidnap a violent dog-living gangster's beloved Shih Tzu. Farrell is joined in the cast by Sam Rockwell (Conviction), Christopher Walken (A Late Quartet), Woody Harrelson (The Hunger Games), Tom Waits (The Book of Eli), Abbie Cornish (Sucker Punch) and Olga Kurylenko (Oblivion). Here's the official synopsis, followed by the trailer:
Aspiring screenwriter Marty (Farrell) has a brilliant screenplay called Seven Psychopaths floating around in his head; unfortunately he's usually to hungover to make any real progress on it. Meanwhile, Marty's best friend Billy (Rockwell) has some great ideas for the story, but he's reluctant to offer input without invitation. A down-on-his-luck actor, Billy pays his rent by running a lucrative dognapping scam with smooth-talking Hans (Walken). Just when frustrated Marty begins to fear that all of his ideas have dried up, however, Billy shows up with an adorable shih zhu swiped from a quick-tempered gangster (Harrelson), and a desperate trip into the desert finds the ideas flowing like drinks at an open bar.
Seven Psychopaths is released on Monday, April 15th.
