War Inc

Poster for the new John Cusack satirical comedy 'War Inc'. Although Cusack plays another troubled hitman, early rumours of this being a semi-sequel to Grosse Pointe Blanke appear to be slightly wide of the mark. The official synopsis reads:-

"War, Inc. is a a political satire set in Turaqistan, a country occupied by an American private corporation run by a former US Vice-President (Dan Akroyd). In an effort to monopolize the opportunities the war-torn nation offers, the corporation's CEO hires a troubled hit man, played by John Cusack, to kill a Middle East oil minister. Now, struggling with his own growing demons, the assassin must pose as the corporation's Trade Show Producer in order to pull off this latest hit, while maintaining his cover by organizing the high-profile wedding of Yonica Babyyeah (Hilary Duff) an outrageous Middle Eastern pop star, and keeping a sexy left wing reporter (Marisa Tomei) in check."

War Inc opens in the USA on May 23rd, and later in the year in the UK.
