A trailer has been released for the wild indie comedy feature Coup!, starring Peter Sarsgaard, Billy Magnussen, Sarah Gadon, Skye P. Marshall, Faran Tahir, Kristine Nielsen and Fisher Stevens.
The film is co-written and co-directed by indie filmmakers Joseph Schuman, in his feature directorial debut, and Austin Stark (The Runner, The God Committee).
The film’s synopsis reads: “Isolated on a seaside estate during the 1918 Spanish Flu, an entitled journalist (Billy Magnussen) and his socialite wife (Sarah Gadon) take in a mysterious grifter as a private cook (Peter Sarsgaard).
“However, when the plague descends upon the island, the wily cook rouses his fellow staff to rebel and take over the mansion.
“Their wealthy employer suspects the cook’s coup is part of a more sinister agenda, and mind games between master and servant escalate into boisterous class warfare in this radical comedy.”
This looks like it’s going to be a fun and wild ride. Coup! is set to hit select US theaters on August 2nd. Check out the trailer below:
