Black Mass tells the story of Whitey Bulger (played by Depp), a convicted murderer and crime boss who acted as an informant for the FBI starting in the 1970’s. Black Mass actually belongs to Joel Edgerton, who plays Federal Bureau of Investigation agent John Connolly.
Now, on the heels of the news that the film, directed by Scott Cooper (Out of the Furnace), will debut at the Venice Film Festival, comes another trailer that nearly feels like a short film in and of itself.
