Sorry To Bother You: First Trailer For Surreal New Comedy Starring Lakeith Stanfield

Annapurna Pictures has released the first trailer for the upcoming independent film Sorry To Bother You, and we have the bizarre comedy’s first footage to share with you today. Welcome to an alternate present-day, unlike anything you’re likely to see this year.

Written and directed by Boots Riley, Sorry To Bother You is set in an alternate present-day version of Oakland, where telemarketer Cassius Green discovers a magical key to professional success, propelling him into a macabre universe. The film sports a strong cast that includes the likes of Tessa Thompson and Armie Hammer.

Check out the first kooky trailer for Sorry To Bother You below:

The film premiered back at the Sundance Film Festival where musician-filmmaker Boots Riley’s debut feature-film was met with an ecstatic reception, especially for Riley’s vision and Stanfield’s tremendous lead performance. The hype continued during SXSW earlier this month.

Sorry To Bother You also stars Terry Crews, Steven Yeun, Omari Hardwick, Jermaine Fowler, Patton Oswalt, and Danny Glover.

In addition to the trailer, we also have a whole slew of character posters from the film. Featuring everyone from Stanfield’s Cassius to Thompson’s Detroit and Armie Hammer’s Steve Lift. Check them out below:
