Money Never Sleeps

Shia LaBeouf and Carey Mulligan made the rounds at the Cannes Film Festival yesterday with their first press conference for Money Never Sleeps, and today brought even more engagements. The couple joined their costars Michael Douglas and Josh Brolin and Oliver Stone for a photo call this morning, and then they were all off for another group chat with reporters and video interviews. Conversation for Shia turned from the movie to his personal life, and he even opened up about Carey, saying she's "a beautiful woman, a sweetheart . . . we have fun together." Michael, meanwhile, spoke to Parade earlier about working with Shia. Despite initial hesitations about Shia's acting abilities, Michael said, "He knocked it out of the park. I’m so proud of him, he just kicked butt.”

Fans of Shia LaBeouf have seen evidence of his real-life romance with Oscar nominee Carey Mulligan, but here's a glimpse at their chemistry on the big screen. In the new, full trailer for Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps, there's a lot more insight into the romance between Jacob Moore and Winnie Gekko (LaBeouf and Mulligan) and how Gordon Gekko's release from prison plays into their relationship.

The first teaser gave us a taste of the fast-paced, greedy, Wall Street lifestyle, but the second trailer provides a bit more character exploration. We see Jacob and Winnie fighting over Jacob's fascination with Gordon as Gordon draws Jacob into his world of greed. Meanwhile, Josh Brolin makes an appearance as the typically arrogant older trader who seems ready to squash Jacob like a bug.

Well, well, well. Just yesterday I was wondering when we'd see a few scenes from the Wall Street sequel, and this morning the teaser showed up. When we last saw Gordon Gekko (Michael Douglas) way back in 1987, he was facing jail time for his illegal Wall Street activities. Twenty years later, he — along with his empty money clip and Zack Morris-sized cell phone — is released from prison to enter a very different financial world than the one he left.

The video playfully depicts just what Gekko's missed while he's in jail. Jacob Moore (Shia LaBeouf) and Bretton James (Josh Brolin) represent a sleeker, more stylized generation of Wall Street traders — at least on the surface. Once he's back in the real world, Gekko wastes no time imparting his words of wisdom to his daughter (Carey Mulligan)'s boyfriend Jacob, but has he been gone for too long to have any impact?

The film definitely has the potential to be totally tongue-in-cheek, but in the best way possible. Check it out for yourself and tell me what you think when you read more
