Watch the new 'The Lincoln Lawyer' trailer

It took a while for this one to come together, but "The Lincoln Lawyer" is now finally on track for a release March 18, 2011. Matthew McConaughey stars in the thriller directed by Brad Furman. Trailer above.

Looks quite intense without revealing all too much at the same time, which I appreciate. Plus, the casting looks pretty solid as well. Marisa Tomei looks amazing, and Ryan Phillippe and William H. Macy co-star.

The film follows a pretty confident lawyer (McConaughey) who works out of the back of his Lincoln and picks up his biggest case yet when he agrees to defend a Beverly Hills playboy accused of murder.

Brad Furman to direct thriller ‘Valet’

Filmmaker Brad Furman is set to direct Alcon Entertainment’s upcoming thriller “Valet,” according to Variety.

Based on a script by Alan B. McElroy and rewritten by Matthew Aldrich, the film springs from the true story of a parking attendant who became obsessed with a female customer and literally penetrated into her life.

Furman’s directing credits include “The Take,” starring Tyrese Gibson and John Leguizamo. As for McElroy, he wrote films such as “Wrong Turn,” “Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever” and “The Marine.” Aldrich penned the screenplay for Renny Harlin’s “Cleaner.”

This pretty much sounds like a remake of Franck Khalfoun’s disappointing horror thriller “P2.” Where are the new, original ideas folks? We’ve seen all this too many times already.
