..Starring Jake Gyllenhaal (was originally supposed to be played by Eminem), Forest Whitaker, Rachel McAdams, and Curtis Jackson aka 50 Cent. Eminem at least worked on the soundtrack.

-Looks solid. The 50 Cent cameo is a bit meh, and the "Protagonist's wife tragically killed because of his own doing" narrative is a little cheesy, but overall should be a pretty solid flick imo.

-To be released July 31, 2015. Initial thoughts?

yeah, the 50 cent casting looks a little forced and the story looks very standard boilerplate.With that said I have to give it a shot just cause of Gyllenhaal and Whitaker. Gyllenhaal is as legit as anyone just based on Jarhead, Prisoners, and Nightcrawler alone. He's gotta win an Oscar at some point. Those two are ridiculously awesome casting

Lmao Rachel McAdams gets the "and" billing even though she gets killed off in the trailer. She must be hoping for another movie where her husband is a time traveler.
