First Trailer Lands For Ridley Scott’s ‘All The Money In The World’

Ahead of its UK release on January 6th, 2018, comes the first trailer for Ridley Scott’s All The Money In The WorldThe film is inspired by historical events, though according to the official blurb we’ve just received, some scenes, characters and dialogue have been fictionalized for dramatic purposes.

The film is set in Rome, 1973. Masked men have kidnapped a teenage boy named Paul (Charlie Plummer). His grandfather, J. Paul Getty (Kevin Spacey), is the richest man in the world, a billionaire oil magnate, but he’s notoriously miserly. His favorite grandson’s abduction is not reason enough for him to part with any of his fortune. All the Money in the World follows Gail, (Michelle Williams), Paul’s devoted, strong-willed mother, who unlike Getty, has consistently chosen her children over his fortune. Her son’s life in the balance with time running out, she attempts to sway Getty even as her son’s mob captors become increasingly more determined, volatile and brutal. When Getty sends his enigmatic security man Fletcher Chace (Mark Wahlberg) to look after his interests, he and Gail become unlikely allies in this race against time that ultimately reveals the true and lasting value of love over money.

All The Money In The World is Ridley Scott’s first movie since Alien: Covenant, which was released in the UK earlier this year to mixed reviews. We actually liked the film, which is apparent in our original review, but this period piece is obviously a big departure from his sci-fi epic.

Check out the first trailer for the film below.
