A few weeks ago, we got a teaser trailer for the long overdue BAD SANTA 2. It was funny, but it was just a tease. Now, we get a much better look at the film and while living up to the first movie is going to be a tall order, this red band trailer is positively hilarious! Billy Bob Thornton is back and he’s as cantankerous and naughty as ever. Also back for the ride are Tony Cox and Brett Kelly. Word to the wise: This trailer is incredibly profane. Translation: Not for kids!
The original was directed by Terry Zwigoff. The sequel finds Mark Waters (MEAN GIRLS) stepping up to the directing plate. Sequels are tough enough, but comedy sequels are the kiss of death. Will BAD SANTA 2 be that rare comedy sequel that measures up to its predecessor? This irreverent trailer certainly goes a long way to suggest that those behind BAD SANTA 2 don’t want to let the fans down.
SYNOPSIS:
“BAD SANTA 2 returns Academy Award®-winner BILLY BOB THORNTON to the screen as America’s favorite anti-hero, Willie Soke. Fueled by cheap whiskey, greed and hatred, Willie teams up once again with his angry little sidekick, Marcus (TONY COX), to knock off a Chicago charity on Christmas Eve. Along for the ride is ‘the kid’ – chubby and cheery Thurman Merman (BRETT KELLY), a 250-pound ray of sunshine who brings out Willie’s sliver of humanity.
Mommy issues arise when the pair are joined by Academy Award®, Golden Globe and Emmy-winner KATHY BATES, as Willie’s horror story of a mother, Sunny Soke. A super butch super bitch, Sunny raises the bar for the gang’s ambitions, while somehow lowering the standards of criminal behavior. Willie is further burdened by lusting after the curvaceous and prim Diane, played by Emmy Award-nominee CHRISTINA HENDRICKS, the charity director with a heart of gold and libido of steel.”
RELEASE DATE:
BAD SANTA 2 jingles into theaters November 23rd, 2016!
