Watch Patton Oswalt in powerful 'Big Fan' trailer
Franck Tabouring
Robert D. Siegel, screenwriter of "The Wrestler," is making his directorial debut with "Big Fan," an upcoming drama starring "King of Queens" comedian Patton Oswalt.
A first trailer for the film just surfaced online, and I encourage you to check it out below. It looks intriguing and promises stellar acting performances.
Oswalt stars as Paul Aufiero, an obsessive New York Giants fan whose chance encounter with his hero unexpectedly ends in violence. The film focuses on how Paul deals with the aftermath of the incident.
As you can see in this preview, Oswalt looks like someone perfectly capable of delivering a strong dramatic performance. He was last seen on the big screen in "Observe and Report."
"Big Fan" screened at this year's Sundance and will hit theaters Aug. 28, 2009.
