A brand new trailer for forthcoming drama, Black Mass, has arrived, starring the almost unrecognisable Johnny Depp as notorious mobster Whitey Bulger.

The film also stars Joel Edgerton (“The Great Gatsby”) as FBI Agent John Connolly; Oscar nominee Benedict Cumberbatch as Whitey’s brother, Billy Bulger; Rory Cochrane (“Argo”) as Steve Flemmi, another member of the Irish mob; Jesse Plemons as Whitey’s longtime partner in crime, Kevin Weeks; and Kevin Bacon (TV’s “The Following”) as FBI Agent Charles McGuire.

In 1970s South Boston, FBI Agent John Connolly (Edgerton) persuades Irish mobster James “Whitey” Bulger (Depp) to collaborate with the FBI and eliminate a common enemy: the Italian mob.  The drama tells the story of this unholy alliance, which spiraled out of control, allowing Whitey to evade law enforcement, consolidate power, and become one of the most ruthless and powerful gangsters in Boston history.

Black Mass is due for released in UK cinemas on November 27.
