Thanks to EW.com the first official pic from Ruben Fleischer’s Gangster Squad has been released and it looks….yeah ok.

Is it just me or does the image look a little photoshopped? Like the background has just been digitally inserted. Now, maybe it’s just me but it really distracts me from admiring the whole picture. It’s entirely possible that the background HAS been digitally inserted but, ideally, I shouldn’t be able to tell…

The goofy grin on Penn’s face just makes him look like an idiot and Brolin’s menacing scowl just kind of makes him seem a tad heavy-handed.

Is it just me? Does it actually look good?

As you probably know I am really looking forward to Gangster Squad (if not, some of my other articles are here) just because I love a good gangster flick and this one looks like it’s shaping up to be something awesome!

What do we know so far?

The film is based on a series of 8 articles written for the LA Times by Paul Lieberman that focussed on the creation of a special Police unit called the Gangster Squad whose objective was to keep the city free of the East Coast Mafia in the 1940′s and 50′s.

Who’s in it?

It’s pretty much a veritable who’s who of Hollywood, check it;

Ryan Gosling, Sean Penn, Emma Stone, Josh Brolin, Nick Nolte, Giovanni Ribisi, Robert Patrick, Michael Pena, and Anthony Mackie.

I am currently playing L.A Noire and loving the experience.

Who wouldn’t enjoy playing a dectective in LA solving crimes in the 1950′s, driving cool cars, and meeting all kinds of “interesting” people?

Well apparently Ryan Gosling, Sean Peann, and Josh Brolin do because the trio are all rumoured to be starring in Gangster Squad. A new film about the LAPD’s fight to keep the East Coast Mafia types out of Los Angeles during the 1940′s and 1950′s.

I think it is fair to say that I will be there front row centre when it gets released, although they need to make the film first!

Ryan Gosling is a busy busy man. He’s just completed filming on Crazy, Stupid, Love. and George Clooney’s The Ides of March and will be heading into The Place Beyond The Pines and then after that … Read More »
